strano koni's revalved or anything? Like it says, are the konis that Sam Strano sells revalved or anything? Or are they the same shocks that ship directly from Koni or any other retailer? I just want to make sure that he doesn't personally change things internally before re-selling them to us. 
Thanks
Cody

If bilstiens were presently available, you could at one point specifically buy revalved bilstiens from him as well as other off the shelf bilsteins. Bilstien revalves were a little more money then the off the shelf ones and also better compression and rebound settings. I never heard of revalving or the need to revalve konis.
Don't worry though, he won't revalve your shocks unless you ask him to

lol well I was askin because I found a killer deal on them, but they are straight from Koni. I wanted to make sure that Sam's were the same identical shock that comes direct from Koni. Cuz if they weren't, then Id save my cash and buy direct from him. Gotta love kids who buy before they think, and have to resell cheaper. Im glad Ive been savin for them, and with this deal its really hard to pass it up....

The only issue with the killer deal is that I can't give you the setup information that comes with Koni's I sell. The Koni instructions suck. Even disregarding that little fact, they don't go into any detail at all about how the adjustment works, or how it effects the car, or what kind of settings you might want to use. This is where you get what you pay for. Something to think about... It'd be a lot easier to sell things for less if I didn't support the product or spend anytime on the phone helping with setup.

I've had to use it twice due to certain issues. Sam and a few others know how to fix the use and install problems. Koni is very supportive of the original purchaser.

ok, I can see your point Sam. Standing behind a product does cost money! I would be the original purchaser, recipt and all. So Koni would warrenty my shocks. But, the setup part is what gets me now. Guess Ill have to wiegh the options.
Hey Sam, dont worry, Ill be gettin a front sway bar from you once I get done paying for the dana 60 I just bought.. have to wait for the finances to recoup a bit.

I would rather spend more money with a guy that I can call up and ask a question. I have worked on cars for the past ten years and know that time/knowledge is money. Everyone wants you to give it away for free. The man has bill's to pay. I am sure his wife likes power and running water. Lord knows mine does.
Sam is a top notch guy.

Dammit man you beat me to the punch. I was going to say the same thing. Sometimes it isn't worth getting the cheapest price on something, especially when it's a suspension part that most people will need help setting up.
