Im going to be helping dillon with some of his suspension stuff. The later 944s require a different koni insert. From what ive read you have to do some cutting to install the later inserts? I think i saw a writeup on this but cant find it on any forums. Can anybody give some advise or please explain on how this is done?
Thanks,
Chris

Here's a thread at Pelican that documents the process in pretty good detail. The thread mentions cutting as part of the effort, so it might be what you're looking for (or if not, it might at least be of some help):
