2G Koni Modification Drawings for DG setup. Typo?

[rabenne]

Hello,

does anyone know if the drawings on DG's autocross to win are 100% accurate? The rear shock groove is showing .032" deep and the front shock groove drawing is showing .32" deep (over 5/16").

I have been researching this setup but have not yet purchased the Koni's to check the depth of the stock grooves, but it doesnt seem right that they dont match. .32" depth is really deep. I am not convinced it is even safe considering what is inside thetube. But I could be wrong, so who KNOWS or can measure for me?

Has this been covered before somewhere else? A quick search yielded nothing.

Thanks for any input.
Will

The drawing is incorrect. It most definitely is not .32 deep

Ok thanks, sometimes you need a reality check when you try to use someone else's work.
On a side note, I can't believe that hasn't been fixed. seem like a way o maybe see inside the shock?

Or do you think the tube wall thickness is >.32"?

Not sure, but the important info on the drawing is the location. Just match the original ring groove size and you will be fine.

I agree! Thanks for the reality check.

Huh. These drawings have been up since 2005 and that’s the first time somebody caught the typo.

Yes, the groove is 0.032” deep, front and rear.

I’ll fix that this weekend.

Fixed.
