Suspension Setup What are your thoughts on running Koni DA's with stock springs on a convertible? I have a STB and SFC's. I have the 1LE kit which includes sway bars, phr, rear lca's.

Re: Suspension Setup I am curious about the koni's on a convertible.
Someone told me that they are too hard and may cause
quarter panel dimples. I am not looking to lower the car, just firm it up.

Re: Suspension Setup They can be adjusted from nearly stock to "ouch that's stiff". If you are really planning to stifen them up, you may want subframe connectors. But if you use a setting that is "correct" for stock springs, I doubt that you'll have any problems.
Re: Suspension Setup I don't suspect that you'll have any problems if you are running connectors and such. I doubt that you'll be running over 6-7 clicks of compression and less than 6 sweeps of rebound on the front and 1/3rd of a "turn" of rebound on the rear....actually, with stock springs, you'll probably not even be up to these settings and it is not that stiff (not to the point of abuse), it firms things up nicely, but I don't think you'll have a chance of "bending" anything. Good luck!
