No.And it pissed me off to.Well I shouldnt say that for sure .The last knoi's I ordered were for a 400.But I think you'll find the same.Call the turkeys up in Kentucky-859-586-4100.They wont sell to you but you can talk to them and their engineers.Thats how I found out a lot of the shocks are still available and got a Ferrari part# book showing the new #'s.

There are much better shocks out there IMO, but they cost more. Ohlins, penske, bilstein all make race shocks that can be fitted to a 308. I have Ohlins and am very happy with them. It's a whole new car.

Truechoice Motorsports is another Koni rebuiler (and you might inquire about adding adjustable lower spring perches to your Konis at the same time if you're interested). Do a search on "truechoice" to get the previous discussion.

It looks like I will have to rebuild or replace my shocks soon. Anyone have any leads on places to rebuild them or are there better units out there than the stock Koni ones?
