The front and rear shocks are different lengths. They also have different mounts. The front needs the longer mount to space the spring away from the lower control arm and spindle (they are mounted 'upside down').

These are specifically for FFR's. They are based off of the Koni 3012 shock. It's a high pressure monotube with independently adjustable compression and rebound dampening. The 3012's were originally developed in the 80's for use in Formula 1 cars.

I ordered them at the end of January and they just now came in. They're a special order available only through a single distributor and he orders 10 sets at a time from Koni. I can't wait to get them in.
