Sorry,they are KYB's not Koni!My 67' came with adjustable KYB shocks on the front.I have never dealt with these,so the question is,how do you adjust them?Also,does adjusting them change the ride firmness of the shock,or the compress/expand ratio,like a 90/10 drag race shock?Thanks

If they are the same KYB's i have they dont adjust. They are called Gas-Adjust and they automatically adjust to road conditions and such. I am probably going to get rid of mine (i didnt put them in, the previous owner did) and get the HAL 12 way adjustables. The HAL's can be made really soft or really stiff, depending on what you want.

I thought the same thing when i got my car. When i couldnt find out how to adjust them, i looked something up and it said automatically adjusts. I was bummed.

Ryan,

Are you going to get the straight HAL shock or are you going to get the coil over set-up. I have been eyeballing the coil over set up for a few months.
