Howdy Volks, I have a brand new set of Koni externally adjustable shocks and struts for A1 chassis. Still in the box, never been installed. If you're...
Gotit, forgot about Neal's wheelspin issues. Weld? Right wheel drive? Errr, REAR wheel drive? Yeah, the problem is not in the green flanges, it is the gold...
