I'm curious if anyone has ever tried the Koni's ? Van Cafe has, or has had them for about $ 107 each. I'm well familiar with KYB's and my normal good shock is HD Bilsteins. ( on vanagons I think HD Bilsteins are OK or fine, but not 'magic.' . On my older mercedes sedan and my 88 740 volvo turbo sedan I think they're stellar ) So anyone use the Koni's........in 2WD, and particulariy with stock springs ? thanks.
