Can someone explain to me how to install the ground control coilover kit using Koni shocks for a 92 AWD talon? No instructions came with my kit and Ground Control has been the biggest pita and have not sent instructions to me yet after asking multiple times.

Anyway, If anyone knows what all exactly should be in the kit and how everything is installed that would be greatly appreciated. The rears I know sit on the snap ring on the shock, however the order of the other items on the top (black rubbery thing, small washer) etc. My biggest concern is how the fronts fit onto the shock. I don't know how they go on or if I have to grind part of the koni shock down or how far I have to grind it etc. If anyone has the instructions or could try to give me as detailed instructions as possible that would be great. Thanks.

I know about the vfaq for it and the cartridge install. That part I'm ok with and udnerstand and the Konis came with instructions for that. However the gc install on there is for KYB's and not Konis. I know it mentions the Konis but does not show any pictures for them or tell what you are supposed to do to make the kit fit the front shocks. Ill read it again but would like to hear from someone who has actually installed the konis with gc's and knows what you are supposed to do to the front. such as where the black adapter in the threaded collar sits on, if im supposed to grind part of the koni down etc, how much should i grind it down etc etc.

Thank you though.
 
anyone? I'm sure some people on here have isntalled these. Vfaq.com doesnt help with the quesiton I have.
