I thought the special orderr ground controls were the only coilovers that worked with yellers due to the shox lack of a perch. They have a lip instead.

Ive got maxspeeds and konis and had no problems, the maxspeeds come with adapter rings that fit right over the koni perch lip
But ground controls are the best

Shunk2 Coilovers require shocks/struts w/out perches... that's Y I'm looking 4 the Koni Yellows, the best w/ no perch ;)

how much u gonna pay for the coilovers and shocks u might wanna look into a true coilover setup for better performance and ride , granted they are expensive though check out what rre has they got some nice shocks their =)
but if your budget isn't that high go for the konis shoot me a pm i might have a deal for u on the konis and skunks if u havent purchased them yet

I've had the Shunk2 Coilovers 4 quite some time, got all 4 for $130 if I remember right (used)... Got some brand X front strut tower bar 4 like $30 & an Ingalls Rear Camber kit for $40.
Right now, the best price I've found on the Koni Yellows is just under $500 (like 499 or something), although I lost the link (was some time ago). Runner up is @ Shox.com for $543.20.
While I agree w/ U about getting some "true" coilovers, my wallet wouldn't appreciate it ;) U're right in that ~$675 (543 + 130) is alot 2 put in2 a suspension, but I'd like 2 think I'm making some decent tradeoffs. They cost a buttload.
If U or some1 U know has some (NEW) Koni Yellows cheaper than 543 (includes shipping), I'm definately open 2 that. I've known about RRE & the various competing shocks/struts, but will stick w/ the Konis.
Thanx, - J
