Question about Koni's
 
Have a chance to get a front and rear set of koni's off of a v6 camaro and was wondering if they will work on my ws6. also the bushings seem to be a bit worn and was wondering if i can change them out? any help will be appreciated seeing as im going to get them in the morning.

here is some pics i took.

i got the rears off with ease, but the fronts have a slight dent from where the sway bar was pushed into them on the bottom. think its still worth getting off?

fronts are:
8241 1139Sport

rears are:
8241 1140Sport

They'll work on your WS6, the numbers are the same as the ones for the V8 cars (and those are the on car adjustable rears as well).

As far as replacing the bushings or the dent in the front, I don't know. How much are you getting them for if you don't mind me asking?

$3.50 per one lol

Shit, for $3.50 grab them all, lol! Even if something doesn't work right (whether it's damaged or worn out), might as well get them!

yeah its a steal, got the front pass side off with a little elbow grease but i stripped one of the torq bolt on the drivers side. so im going back tomorrow and gonna cut it off lol. Cant complain for having a koni 3/4 for under $30 bucks lol. might sell em or buy some strano springs and throw em on.

And there is nothing wrong with the bushings. They always get painted at the factory and have that cracked look as soon as they are installed, but there is nothing wrong with the rubber.

If nothing else, get them rebuilt! Not sure on cost for rebuilding, but it shouldn't be too bad.

well it seems i cant get that last bolt off the top, i tried a drill, saw and just brut strength. seems i need a grinder. also found a for sale sign on the car and called the previous owner, seems the shocks were on the car for about 4500 miles till he totaled it. sucks i cant get that front drivers side out
