Anyone ever get konis for their max and if so did the front pair come with like the perch and strut bolts or do you just reuse the old ones? Need quick answers please bcuz i may have to return some parts now. Thanks for the help.

I haven't purchased those struts, but my monroes came with new bolts screwed onto the strut during packaging. Most strut manufacturer's distribute struts with those bolts, but if your unsure just call up customer service and ask.

Reason im asking is because the product numbers on both match but the picture online and the actual strut are different, so i wanna know if i got jipped before i yell at someone lol

I hope you're aware that the front Konis need to be retro fit into the old OEM strut housing. They are in no means a direct bolt on. The rears are a bolt on. You should get all the necessary hardware, aside from the lower strut to knuckle mounting bolts. Mounts, dust boots, bushings would be purchased separately.

You'll also have to file out the center hole on the upper strut mount.

You will have to modify your OEM struts to do this. Mostly you will need a hacksaw and a drill press. The instructions are easy to follow and will give you pro-looking results.

My biggest complaint about Koni Yellows is that you have to completely remove the rear struts to adjust them. They are not externally adjustable like the fronts. I know people sometimes do adjustable KYBs in the rear for this reason. Other than that they are way better than typical OEM struts, especially for competition.
