I'm replacing the Spax Shock absorbers with Konis on a GTD chassis. Has anybody made the bushes to adapt the Konis and if you did, do you still have the dimensions of those bushes?

Hi Fred,
for the moment I am going to use the springs from the Spax. The Koni's have arrived whilst I was away in Austria - I believe they are race with adjustable bump/rebound.
I'll be down the workshop tomorrow and tell you the actual type.

Have just changed over to Koni's from Spax ,as well as changing over to dual rate Eibach springs. You can turn up the bushes yourself( thanks Jasper).Alternativly you can buy adapters direct from Demon Tweeks and use washers to shim them to exactly the right size.Look in 2003 catalogue,P325,Side Spacers.
