How do I adjust the Koni Special D shocks?

The Koni Special D shocks are internally adjustable. Adjustment is typically done by rotating the adjustment knob located at the top of the shock absorber. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the specific procedure for your model.

What is the benefit of a twin-tube shock absorber?

Twin-tube shock absorbers generally offer good performance and durability. They are known for their ability to maintain consistent damping, even under demanding conditions, and are often easier to manufacture than monotube designs.

Does this shock absorber come with any mounting hardware?

This product includes the Koni Special D shock absorber. It is designed as a direct fit replacement, so it utilizes the original mounting hardware from your Jaguar XKE. Ensure your existing hardware is in good condition before installation.
