hey everyone,

Im new at this forum.

My front right shock started to leak (im running eibach pro-kits)

I ordered Koni Yellows off the koni website and they are due to ship in about a week.

My only question is that do I need to buy the four stab links from mazda as well?
or will I be able to selvedge my current stab links.

Let me know your experiences, or advice

Thanks

Greg

How long have you had the springs on? Just asking because I want to get the pro kits installed on my stock struts..

im in the same boat, picking up a set of koni yellows, do we need to change the bump stops or four stab links from mazda? read on another forum that longer bolts may be required? is this true and anyone know where to get them?

Thanks!

yeah from what I know you wont need to do anything should be a direct swap....Koni yellows are designed for lowered cars.....for the FSDs you have to remove the bumpstops if you are using them on a lowered vehicle. (also depends on how low....)
