Product Details

If you're working on a classic Porsche 356 from 1948 to 1955 and want to restore its original ride feel, these Koni Classic (Red) shocks for the front end are a solid choice. They're built to bring back that authentic handling and comfort that made the 356 famous.

These are twin-tube, non-gas shocks, which is a common design for classic vehicles. What's notable is that they are internally adjustable for rebound. This means you can fine-tune how quickly the shock extends after compression, allowing you to dial in the ride and handling to your preference, whether you're aiming for a softer cruise or a more controlled feel on winding roads. The red finish is also a classic look that complements the vintage aesthetic of your 356.

When installing these, remember they are designed as a direct replacement for your original shocks, making the job straightforward. You'll want to ensure you have the correct tools for removing the old shocks and installing the new ones, and it's always a good idea to refer to your vehicle's service manual for specific procedures.
