It has come to my attention that some folks are having trouble getting STR.T's, if you are then you might be interested to know I have some 140 front and rears ready to go (that's about 70 car sets worth).

I also just got a shipment of springs and remember the price on those has been lowered to $224.10 a set.

 

Glad I called you, Sam!

Looking forward to getting mine soon. Thanks again for your help.

 

I am glad you called as well! Should see them shortly!

 

Sam, is it typical for these shocks to not come with upper hardware? I figured I would just reuse the stock stuff but the shaft of the Koni's is a larger diameter. I drilled out the metal "washers" that go on top and bottom of the rubber bushings so no issue there. I can also buy larger nuts to match the Konis but it seems like the factory bushings might be too thick to get the 2 bushings, 2 washers and nut started on the shaft. Is there some modification that needs done to the bushings to take some thickness out of them?

I'm sure I can figure it out, just thought I'd ask the pro

 

Scratch that, I had been working on the pile for too long and wasn't thinking clearly.

For anyone wondering - drill the factory metal bushing washers out to 1/2" so they will fit over the larger Koni shafts, the rubber bushings will fit over the larger shaft fine with a little muscle. Then I dug around in the hardware bin and found (2) larger nylock nuts and that was that!

 

STR-Ts should come with new upper hardware (washers, bushings, nuts). I bought mine from BMR and one shock came with a bag full of new hardware and the other did not. I contacted BMR and Eric had his Koni rep get me the missing pieces.

 

Interesting...

Hopefully no ill effects from how I did it!

 

Lots in stock. I am bumping this because I get a few messages a week asking. Yes, I have a good 40 cars sets ready to ship!
