What kind of Konis do you have?   And do you actually *know* that your 
shocks are Konis, or are you assuming?

Back in the day, Koni made OEM replacement shocks that used the stock, 
large-diameter springs.   They were typical Koni orange in color.   More 
recently (that is, within the last 25 years) the Pantera vendors have been selling 
modern, small-diameter Koni shocks; typically they have yellow bodies and 
blue or black springs.   Either kind can be rebuilt easily.

Let us know what you've got, and we'll go from there. :>)
