[Mike Rainbird]

Not yet, I keep getting promised that I will be getting an email direct from the top man at Koni, but nothing yet.

same as ive seen this on the shocks years ago but didn't think alot of it at the time, hugh

Did we get any feedback off Koni regarding this issue

[Mike Rainbird]

Not yet, but I have spoken to Ahmed and John Stubs at Black Art Design, and they have all confirmed it is okay for the hole to be redrilled so that the damper seats properly. I have put this to the top man at Koni as well, but I personally believe that there is a reluctance to confirm this, as it then acknowledges that there is an issue with the dampers that don't seat correctly (as in the tab was mounted in an incorrect position) . However, please note that redrilling to seat it properly will not affect the structural integrity in any way shape or form.

It will lower it to the point that it should be, as they should SHOULD be flush with the hub, as per the photos showing this on this thread .

Is this problem now fixed on new shocks or won't Koni comment about that?

They won't comment - it's as if I don't exist . They replied once trying to imply that the hubs on the Sapphire 4x4 and the Escorts were different, but then went quiet after I pointed out that the finis numbers were identical .
