Default Reusing shock

I pretty much have everything to drop my car. H&R SS Springs, Koni SA shocks/struts, and MM c/c plates. Just recently I decided I want go with a K member & CO's in the front. My question being can I reuse my front struts for my CO's or would I need to buy a new pair?


I would run them in the front with springs for about 4 months..

Well the search tool on this forum sucks *****, so if you someone could shed some light on my question that would be greatly appreciated! I have no problem buying a new set of struts but if i could save a couple hundred bucks that would be great

You should be able to use the struts for CO's, as I have Koni Yellows and are fine for them. I have done a bit of research and not comfortable commiting to it though. Contact Koni with your exact model number and confirm they are strong enough and ask purchase the parts needed to convert to CO's.

I really appreciate the help Jazzer! I gave MM a call and they said I should be fine.
