Koni shocks

[abarth69]

I need to have four vintage Koni shocks restored for my Fiat Abarth Zagato. Has anyone ever had this done by one of the Koni service shops?

Hello Mark,

have you tried adjusting them or is the external appearance that needs restoring?

External appearance needs work and one is leaking.

I find these people in USA that offer this type of service

Mark, are these "take apart" shocks? If they aren't I don't think they can be rebuilt. Maybe TrueChoice can do them though.
I've dealt with them for other items, and have always been pleased with their service.

Mark, FWIW the last time I checked the price of rebuilding it was about the same as new Koni's for my TR4A.


Cheers

If it's a "common" unit the replacement may be an option. If it's a "rare beast", I.E. Lotus rear strut unit, the only option is rebuild. I kinda think the Zagato will have the Koni Unobtanium units, unfortunately. The good news is Koni (TrueChoice) ~will~ rebuild 'em.
