I saw some on Hawks for $39.99 a pair. Not a bad price if you ask me. I think AZ wanted $25 each last I looked, but that was years ago with my last F-Body.
Heres the link

I sell them also, but $39.99 is a good price. My cost is not much less than that.

i picked up a brand new pair in full working order from a junkyard at $5 each. it was sweet. warm weather or cold they hold it up, my hatch only stays up if it's hot outside. (war air expands!)

Yeah, I'd go to the j/y and get some for my car since it needs them bad, but after almost loosing 2 fingers from bad ones on a f-body, I'm getting brand new ones instead.

lol same thing with me. i just picked up a pair of hood shocks from the junkyard for 10 dollars. they seem pretty new and are strong, the hood is actually a little hard to push down and close now. my hatch shocks only hold when its really hot too. gotta find hatch shocks now.
