How do you adjust the koni yellow left rear?
I can get at other 3 with ease, but getting to left rear is almost imposible. Getting past/around fuel lines has me stumped. How do you do it? Please post a pic if possible. Thanks, Nick

I used to run yellows...
1) Get an extra Koni adjuster
2) Trim down the adjuster to reduce the height
3) Remove the shock
4) Put the trimmed adjuster onto the shock
5) Replace the shock
6) Never remove the adjuster

I ended up buying a different brand of shock with an easier-to-access adjuster. That wasn't the sole reason for my switch, but it was a nice side benefit.

From Koni NA,
They suggest the following
If you have the knob with the extension on it (about an inch or so),
that is the longest adjustment knob that we have available. However,
you should be able to take a wooden dowel rod and crave a notch in it to
go over the adjustment tab on the shock. Use the front for reference as
it'll be the same. If you have any questions, please write back and let
me know. Thanks.

Nick, what type of adjustment do you plan on making. Mine are on about 1/4 turn from full soft and stay that way street and autocross. I only mess with the fronts a little - typically to soften for the street.
Odd thing is, i recently had a co-driver who found the car to TIGHT and we took the fronts to full soft - with him wishing we could stiffen the rear a bit. Go figure. We did just fine, but it was just a local event so...
I have a standard front saner bar, 2nd hole, with khumo Victos on 16's.
