914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Koni Shock Adjusters

Posted by: rfinegan Apr 10 2018, 07:52 AM

I posted a wanted to buy an adjuster knob for a set of used Koni shocks I got here on the forum...NO bites. SO I decided t make a pair on the lathe the other night at school. I posted this on the face book page, but here I added the "firm=>" engraving to the knobs....Just For Fun!

Enjoy

That is how they should be made! Can't understand why they make them from such cheap plastic.

Nice, I like

the shock top piece I have a drawer full of them, sorry I missed your add. I am guessing you learned a good bit in making them or at least re-enforced a skill set.
