Ground Control koni app vs. Ground Control non-koni app

CakeDaddy · 04-22-03, 12:26 AM

For those who have GC's what is the difference in the koni app vs the non koni app?

These are my koni application GC's

The only difference is that the koni app has smaller sleeves. It's because koni shocks are skinnier than our stock shocks, so the sleeves that fit our stock shocks would be too big to fit on the koni's. I hope that made sense. I started with GC coilovers with my stock shocks, then when I upgraded to knoi shocks, I had to buy new sleeves.

I see now. So, the actual spring is the same, but the sleeve is different.

If you go wth Ground Control you only have two options, oem GC's or the koni app GC's.

model no. 10.35.02 = koni application GC's

or

model no. 10.35.01 = oem application GC's
