Ok, I'm searching high and low for some info on the tiburon and accent suspensions. Now, the accent stuff I can do on my own for the most part, but I dont know of any dealer that are friendly enough to let me poke around a Tib's suspension.
All I need is a few simple measurements of the stock struts. I need to know:
Front
- outside diameter
- overall length
- length of the body of the strut
Rear
- outside diameter
- overall length
- length of the strut
What I'm trying to figure out, Koni has externally adjustable front and rear inserts listed for the 2000+ tiburons. However, for the 98+ accent only the fronts are externally adjustable. I'm trying to determine if 1) the tib struts are the same basic dimensions so I can just order the (cheaper) tib inserts and 2) if I can avoid having to have the regular accent insert revalved at a cost of $200/strut for external adjustable.
Thanks for your help guys...

Nothings wrong with the Ksports at all. Its just that I already have drop springs sitting here and I might be able to get the koni's at a significant discount.
