Why Special

Tailored comfort, trusted durability

The KONI Special shock combines durability with customisation for van and motorhome owners. User-adjustable valving lets you fine-tune the ride for load and road conditions, for a comfortable, controlled drive on city streets or the highway.

Twin-tube construction

Consistent, controlled damping with an oversized piston.

Internally adjustable valving

Softer for long highway runs, firmer for heavier payloads.

Heavy duty steel body

Built for the demands of vans and motorhomes.

Van specific engineering

Designed for a specific model for optimal geometry.

Manufactured in Europe

Built by KONI in Europe.

OEM quality fitment

No cutting, fabrication or alignment corrections.

The technology

Consistent control under any load

User adjustable valving

Special uses KONI internal adjustment, set with the shock compressed off the vehicle. Choose a softer rebound setting for comfort on long highway drives, or a firmer one for tighter control with more payload.

Light or fully loaded

Lightly packed or fully loaded, Special keeps handling predictable, with stable cornering, reduced sway and a more secure ride.

Twin-tube with oversized piston

An inner and outer cylinder manage oil flow for consistent damping while isolating the body from road imperfections. With the oversized piston and adjustable valving, Special gives a reliable, custom-tailored ride.
