Another Koni thread..A little different though..
Okay, So with the stock springs, no isolators and Koni SA's ...with the spring installed on the lower perch.. Do you think it will sit low ?
Has anyone done this , does it ride well with suspension mods like mine .. Im really thinking about doing this .. Also anyone have pix of this. Maybe SAM STRANO can chime in on this please

It gives you about a 3/4" drop all around. It may not sound like a lot, but it makes quite a difference visually.
It's what I run on my car. Some pics are in the first post here: https://ls1tech.com/forums/wheels-tires/890563-anthracite-ttm-s-silver-formula-pics.html
It should ride better than the shock/spring combo you currently have.

I did the koni lower perch with the rear heater hose mod.Drops front app 3/4" and rear app.1/2 " (with stock springs).Strano said I would notice the difference.I thought ya right,I WAS SUPPRISED.It looked a lot better.If it
isn't low enough for you than get the strano lowering springs.The ride is and handling are great with the koni's.

Other than that link that was posted (showing yet another car set this way), there isn't much I can add. The others have pretty much covered it.
