Converting Koni`s?

I have a pair of double adjustable yellow front struts for a FOX Mustang, but unfortunately, these are the high performance "handling" style of struts. Does anybody know if they could be sent to Koni (or anybody else for that matter), and be re-configured or modified for drag racing?

Re: Converting Koni`s?

Yes, they can be re-configured by True Choice.

What year is your car? I may have a source for a pair of front SPA-1 drag struts for a 1987-1993 Fox Body.

Re: Converting Koni`s?

Thanks, my Mustang is a 85, but I understand that the 87-93 struts will fit by removing the spot welded in spacers for the lower mount to the spindle. Are those SPA1`s single or double adjustable?

The Koni SPA1 drag strut for the late model Mustangs are single. The Koni Sport struts, that are a road race type, are Yellow colored, and are double adjustable. The best late model Mustang double adjustable drag struts are made by Santhuff. However, for the price of one strut, you can buy both front and rear Koni SPA1 drag shocks, and have some change left.

You can also both either the standard Koni Red, or the Yellow Sport Koni, and have them re-valved by True Choice for drag racing.
