Koni FSD Settle?

[shamie]

Two weeks and 400 miles ago I installed Koni FSDs (2100-4045) with my stock springs. I’d read & searched a ton and there was a clear consensus that with stock springs the rear ride height would remain the same but the front would be about a half inch higher. All the threads I read were fairly old so I thought maybe Koni had fixed this issue and I would be special and my ride height would remain at stock. Well I guess I’m only “short bus” special because I’m about a half inch high in the front.

So my question to those with FSDs and stock springs is do they ever settle or do you just settle for the ½ inch increase? I don’t want my car lower than stock and I’m weary of modifying the front strut positioning ear like Dano as that probably voids the Koni Lifetime Warranty. I love the ride now (may be because the stock dampers were shot) I’d just like the front level.

So I'll take it from the on-slot of replies that either that everyone settles for the increase ride height or nobody cares.

I guess I'm settling too.

It didn't look right, spell check didn't suggest right, and I didn't really care to look it up.

So now that the onslaught has started I'll brace myself.

Yes the FSD's will raise the ride height in the front by 1/2" and it will remain this way.

This has been discussed in countless amounts of threads.

Yes I've read all those threads but as I mentioned in the OP they were all old threads and I was wondering if Koni got there shit together yet. Guess not.

I mean, honestly the 1/2" raise isn't all that bad, makes pulling in and out of driveways not super hard and time consuming.
