KONI FSD LCR, Please Help Moi !!

[johnboy98]

Hi all can anyone give me the actual KONI FSD shock part number for the front shocks to fit an LCR ??
Only reason is i think ive made a boob....and i cant stop squeezing it....back on topic, ive bought a 2nd hand pair of shocks and they are off a mk4 golf form MKIV owners forum the ad went like this:

"Koni FSD shock absorbers, fit Mk4 Golf, TT 2WD, Leon, A3 6 months old, covered 2K miles, still under warranty Sale due to change of car. £280 ono Any questions please ask Thanks Matt"

LCR225 and Golf TDi

I have done a search and there isnt anything thats utterly conclusive that ive screwed up, Awesome do claim to sell the only FSD kits for an LCR in the country but is that really true?

I havent received the shocks yet and am aware about the extra bracket for the anti-roll bar that should be fitted, just wondering if anyone REALLY knows or have them fitted and can tell me any part numbers......Bugger i think ive made a mistaker!!

Thanks in advance peeps.

Think the LCR has a different front suspension to golf,think it has golf rear suspension but tt front.Dont think a kit for a golf would fit a LCR,might fit just a normal leon though.

If they are the general set for the Golf Mk1V they will not fit

You need S3 front end in the set not A3 (the TT 4wd front end was the same too)

As you say it's easy to tell when you see them due to the front ARB carrier on the bottom of the damper.

On the bright side Golf Mk1V kits are easier to resell than LCR stuff

Hi, they turned up today and sadly they dont have the Anti roll carrier brackets....bugger. They are in great condition and I didnt even get the hands dirty whilst inspecting them. So they are up for sale and you Sheffboy have 1st refusal then I will advertise them properly.

They sound a real bargain for someone. Good luck with the sale
