Reply to "Consensus for Aluminum Shocks for Street?"

I just purchased a set of Konis from Quella a couple of weeks ago. I love the way my car sits now. They also were very easy to install since Quella provides all the spacers for installation and presets the shocks for the typical Pantera.

My car has about 22,000 original miles and had the stock shocks with factory spacers. I was shocked at how heavy and bulky the stock shocks truly are once they were out of the car. By the way, there is a little grinding that had to be done so that the shock hats did not hit the mounts – but that was no big deal. Quella provided written instructions on doing this too.

I have probably only put 20 or 30 miles on the car since my installation, and I love the ride. I think I am going to drop the nose about another ½ inch but I am going to wait a bit to see.

I also was concerned about the color of the shocks when I first thought about buying them. However, it is so hard to see them when the car is on the ground that it is now a non-issue.

Hope this helps in your decision making process.
