Steve,

Double adjustable Koni Sports huh? Wow, that would be nice but yes, rather pricey and, more likely than not, beyond my reasonable budget. I, myself would like to get a set of those Konis and see what a difference it can make in reducing some understeer by dialing a stiffer setting in the rear and a soft setting in front. In your case, if the sway bars and springs don't reduce enough body roll for your tastes then yes, give the rock-hard settings on the Konis a try (just remember to crank them back down before the wife jumps in the passenger seat!). Since you've been researching lately (I was looking into Konis about 2 years ago), do you know if the Koni Sports are still the strut inserts for the fronts?

By the way, have you found a supplier of poly bushings that makes a set for the 1995 850? I'd be interested in that as well.

Thanks
