Anyone running the Koni D3 dampers? If so how are they going?

No, but I've got dampers from Spyros at roverland in Greece. More expensive than the koni.

Very very good. To much wallowing and bouncing before. At around 120000km the standard ones couldn't handle the extra weight and corrugated roads anymore.

I also had fitted a set of uprated control arm bushes from the same company.

In their tests they took a fully loaded and kitted D3 60,000km through Africa and then took the dampers apart at the end. Less than an 1% damping difference between LR at RR, with no other issues.

I believe some of the South African guys were putting on the Koni's but I don't know of any here.

Hopefully someone has as it would be interesting to find out how they perform.
