adjustable endlinks with koni red??

rediahad · 02-14-2019, 01:56 PM

Hey guys i just installed koni red shocks with stock springs on my e93 and the endlinks seem too long, am i doing something wrong or do i need adjustable links?

Never heard of red. Orange I know.

they are the new active shocks, i think they are the same as koni fsd or close to stock

I doubt they affected the end links, but getting adjustable ones can't hurt. The stock ones will go pretty soon.

You are doing it wrong.

The guys at ecs tuning told me i needed adjustables but i think my sway bar orientation is wrong

ECS is telling you wrong. (want to just sell you more parts)

This. Swaybar is probably flipped. Should be able to reuse the stock links.

There are several threads on this forum regarding adjustable swaybar links.

Harold at HP Autoworks was/ is the guru on this subject.

He would probably say that the new swaybar end links in the front need to be longer and the ones in the back need to be shorter.

You lengthen them or decrease them by the length of the drop in your suspension in the front or rear.

I believe OP reused stock springs ?

He clearly stated stock springs. Should be no need for adjustable links.

rediahad · 02-19-2019, 03:13 PM

You are right i reused stock springs and took to suspension shop to figure out sway bar they reused my stock links. Thanks ecs for selling me a set of $130 links i dont need.
