Koni yellows install for the front is pretty involved.

You need to CUT the stock bottoms of the stock original struts you already have and insert the Koni struts in them and secure it with a big washer and nut from the bottom.

The Koni yellows in the rear are drop-in replacements.

Bumping from the great beyond...

Can't say I didn't search.

Is the front Koni Yellow install procedure pretty difficult to do correctly? I've run Koni Yellows before and I like them but I could change to something else if needed.

The only thing is I'd need something that can handle 525 lb/in, as that looks like what I will be running in the front.
