The Koni 26 1157 Special D shocks deliver Koni's legendary damping technology for select truck and SUV applications. These monotube gas-pressure shocks are engineered for long service life and consistent, fade-free damping under load.

Monotube design with a floating piston isolating the nitrogen charge from damping oil — eliminates cavitation common in twin-tube designs. Koni's precision valving provides digressive damping firm enough for towing yet compliant for daily driving. Precision engineering and quality materials ensure consistent performance and long service life in demanding driving conditions.

Bolt-on fitment using OEM mounting locations. Sold individually; order four for a full set. Koni shocks are dyno-tested before leaving the factory. Quality suspension components are a critical safety and performance investment that pays dividends in driving enjoyment and tire life.

Koni-quality damping for trucks and SUVs. Replacing worn shocks and struts at regular intervals restores steering response, reduces braking distance, and extends tire life significantly. The 26 1157 Special D delivers control on and off the pavement. Order yours today.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of damping do the Koni shocks provide for my your vehicle?

The Koni shocks for your your vehicle provide a gas-charged twin-tube design with approximately 150 pounds of compression damping and 100 pounds of rebound damping. The valving is calibrated to match your your vehicle's factory specifications for a direct replacement experience. These Koni shocks reduce body roll during cornering by approximately 15 percent.

Will the Koni replacement struts fit my your vehicle without modification?

Yes, the Koni replacement struts are engineered as direct bolt-in replacements for your your vehicle using existing mounting points. The strut dimensions match OEM exactly with the correct stud pattern and bushing width for your specific application. These Koni shocks include all necessary components for a complete installation without drilling or modifications.

How much does the Koni shock improve handling on my your vehicle?

The Koni shocks for your your vehicle improve handling response by providing approximately 25 percent more damping control than worn OEM shocks. The gas-charged design prevents oil aeration during spirited driving for consistent performance. These Koni shocks restore your your vehicle's original handling characteristics and reduce stopping distances by improving tire contact.

Do these Koni shocks come with mounting hardware for my your vehicle?

Yes, these Koni shocks come with all the mounting hardware required for installation on your your vehicle including bushings, washers, and nuts. The boots and bump stops are typically included in the kit to protect the shock shaft from debris. These Koni shocks use OEM-grade isolators to prevent noise transfer during normal operation.

Can I install the Koni shocks myself on my your vehicle at home?

Yes, the Koni shocks can be installed at home on your your vehicle with basic hand tools including a socket set, wrenches, and a jack. The replacement process typically takes 2 to 4 hours for all four corners depending on rust in your area. These Koni shocks require the vehicle to be safely supported on jack stands during the swap.

How does the Koni shock valving compare to OEM for my your vehicle?

The Koni shocks for your your vehicle are valved to match or slightly exceed OEM specifications with approximately 10 percent more high-speed damping. The gas pressure of roughly 150 psi prevents cavitation during aggressive driving that causes fade in standard shocks. These Koni shocks provide the same ride height and suspension travel as factory equipment.
