Title: Suspension Bushing
Post by: Julio A. on February 21, 2011, 04:46:37 AM

The Suspension Bushings on my Koni Shocks are perished; letting the whole suspension assembly slip on itself. Is it possible to acquire new sets of these bushings?

Koni's are now made by IKON, see if you have any luck searching for their web site or a supplier.

Cheers Bruce

It might be possible to make some "Del-Alum" type bushings for them.  Those types of bushings are used in high performance suspensions.

Yes, if they are Koni's, I would contact Ikon.  They should be able to supply you with what you need.
Just be ready with the dimensions.
