    Fitted new koni shocks all round but after driving realised they were still abit soft for me. Are 246 shocks adjustable like 308 ones .If so how?

    Put the top end in a vise, push full in and rotate all the way clockwise.

    I also had the question about shocks as my suspension is apart. For $15 per shock you can have it tested on a Maxwell shock Dyno in 3 adjustment levels. Sure is worthwhile since you're in there already.

    I found the NOS shocks from Rutlands were not as stiff as the originals on my car. Koni date stamps their shocks so you can tell how old they are.
    Here are the graphs that show exactly how much difference there is between new and old.
