KONI Special / Classic Short Stroke Rear Shock Absorber (pair) – Holden Torana LH / LX / UC (Part # 80-2156SP1)

When dropping the ride height on a coil-sprung Torana rear end, standard-length shocks often bottom out or allow lowered springs to unseat over crests and under heavy articulation. The KONI 80-2156SP1 (Sport / Short-Stroke “SP1” specification) solves this directly by pairing a reduced open length and tuned stroke with KONI’s proven twin-tube hydraulic damping.

Coated in signature KONI red, this shock features external/off-vehicle rebound adjustability, allowing you to fine-tune axle control, plant the rear tyres, and tame aggressive rebound rates from stiff aftermarket lowering springs. Fully rebuildable and re-valvable, it’s the definitive rear damper choice for lowered street cruisers, track toys, and pro-touring builds.

Key Features:

• Short-Stroke Performance Design (SP1): Shortened open and closed lengths ensure lowered rear coil springs remain securely trapped in their seats at full suspension extension.

• Adjustable Rebound Damping: Off-car rebound adjustment gives you direct control over dampening stiffness to suit aggressive spring rates and performance tyres.

• Axle Hop & Tramp Reduction: Controls rapid rear axle movement under hard acceleration, braking, and fast directional changes.

• Fully Serviceable & Rebuildable: Can be completely rebuilt, serviced, or custom-valved to match bespoke spring configurations down the track.

• Period-Correct Finish: Gloss red powder coat keeps the undercarriage looking classic while delivering modern performance handling.

Vehicle Fitment:

• Holden Torana (Sedan & Hatchback): LH, LX, UC (Suits lowered spring applications, SL/R, SS, Sunbird, and custom rear-end setups)
