Koni shocks
Was wondering if anyone has used the Koni st.r
shocks for replacement. How did u like em?
Are they better than the AC Delco shock.
The Koni shocks are suppose to have a lifetime
warranty. just trying to find the best reasonable
replacement shock? Thanks for any advise and
opinions.

Bilstein HD shocks. I like them a lot and so do many others here. Advanced Search here is your friend. You’ll see many positive comments about Bilsteins and not using the Bilstein “Sport” versions. Merry Christmas!

"Huntsville" is correct! Bilstein HD's are great shocks....... I ran them on my Modified 06 Z....
I do have Koni Shocks (80C 1820 & 80C 1576) on my 67 Coupe. Ironically, I also have the receipt and warranty card in my possession...My records show they were replaced in 1984. My indications are that they are still quite functional. No leaks. With an F41 suspension, it's not easy to test them. I have thought about testing the Warranty......But!

Not to add confusion to this thread as the HD Bilsteins are a great choice but take a look at this old thread for some "spirited" discussion.
