Koni Shock Adjustment?
i am getting ready to install the koni shocks i bought, and was wondering since you have to drop the control arm to get to the top of the shocks, does this mean everytime i dial in the shocks i will need to drop the control arm?

no, you can adjust them installed on the car without any problem. Just make sure that when you're installing the shocks, that you make sure the adjuster is pointed outwards, so it will be accessible to the little adjustment tool.
I always adjusted them at the autocross/ track when I was changing tires - works just fine.

thanks. believe it or not i still haven't installed them. haven't had the time, and when i was talking to someone about the install they mentioned dropping the control arm and i wanted to make sure that wasn't necessary for adjustment.

Actually, there's no need to do that either. Just unbolt the shocks, pull the old ones out, and wiggle the Konis in. I took a bunch of zip-ties to compress mine as fully as possible, so they were nice and short on the way in - makes it an easy job.
