I realize it has been talked about many times before, but what are the part numbers of higher performance replacement struts (both front and rear) for a J30t?? Does KONI make them??

ThanksJON

The front struts are kind of rebuildable. You keep the outer frame of it (where the spring sits) and replace the inside with new dampers. Inside the original is an ugly hydraulic fluid mess, but the replacement cartridges are easy and just slide in. I'm not sure how else to explain it without writing a page and without pictures.
