Here is a pic. of where the whiste discs. sit....



Not sure if you received the instructions for the inserts but they cover quite a bit....

Lastly they do not click into position as you adjust, they sweep as you described it.

The instructions were illustrations. For some reason I need words to go along with the drawnings.

Ok, The white disc is meant to prevent a seal from forming between the bumpstop and the Koni. They prevent air from being pushed/pulled past the seal when a bumpstop creates a vacuem around the top of the Koni.

The rubber boots prevent water from going between the housing and the insert. If the jbweld has a perfect seal around the top they are not needed. If you see a void then either fill the void with something to make the area water proof or use the boot.

I am telling you, if you live in the 5 boroughs and do not want to sacrifice the drop of and Eiback Pro Kit or H&R for a good ride, you MUST get or have your OEM style struts shortened and use Koni inserts. This combined with Koni bumpstops, you will handle Atlantic Avenue between Pennsylvania and the Conduit like a SUV owner. If you have Hypercos, you understand what I mean. Linden Blvd will be a playground. Name the bad road, you will no longer be hitting brakes to avoid "that" fimilar pothole.
I do not know if Steve wants to do anymore business, but I am sure with a grinder and a drill and some JB Weld, you too can make a set.
One word, INCREDIBLE!

I figured that's what your response would be once you finally got them on. Two thumbs up for Steve.=)

I'll take that as "first hand knowledge" on the CKS's working fine with the Pro Kit or H&R's for DD. It made sense on paper, a rather tiny loss of travel (a 1/2" or less) with a slightly stiffer (20-30%) than OEM spring.

Yeah, I'm gonna quote you.
