Product Description

The KONI 8041-1108SPORT Rear Sport Shock is a performance-tuned replacement shock absorber designed to enhance handling, cornering precision, and road feel on classic Volkswagen vehicles. As part of KONI's Sport (Yellow) series, this rear shock features adjustable damping that allows drivers to fine-tune rebound characteristics for a firmer, more responsive ride during spirited driving or light track use. Its twin-tube, gas-charged design delivers consistent rebound control while maintaining a reasonable level of ride comfort for daily driving.

This shock fits the rear suspension of a variety of classic Volkswagen platforms including 1985-1992 Golf II and Jetta II 4-cyl models, 1990-1992 Corrado G60, and 1993-1998 Golf III and Jetta III 4-cyl versions. It is optimized for use with both OEM and moderate lowering springs (up to ~35 mm). Sold individually, two shocks are required for a complete rear axle replacement. Professional installation and alignment are recommended to maximize handling and ride quality balance. Fitment confirmed through classic model years up to 1998; later years are unconfirmed at time of listing.
