tokico performance shock/strut/spring kit F/S

Removed this from my 92 z28 in favor of coilovers front and rear. Set includes all 4 springs, rear rubber isolators, front struts with mounts and hardware, and rear shocks with hardware. approximately 7k miles on them, and they are in damn good shape, with little surface rust/paint blemishes from sitting for a year and a half.

Great way to lower your ride and replace the vitals on your old sagging suspension at the same time. As you can see it sells for 450+ship new

http://www.eautoworks.com/product-Tokico-3701.htm

asking $350 + ship for it all

Re: tokico performance shock/strut/spring kit F/S

is the pic of your camaro a pic with the kit your selling installed, or is that with your coilovers installed? That looks a little low for a 1.25" drop, although it looks better than what I though a inch and a quarter drop would look like.

Re: tokico performance shock/strut/spring kit F/S

thats how the car sat with THIS kit on it... I just removed it for coilovers. Those pics are at least 3-4 years old. I was kind of shocked that they are only 1 1/4 springs too. Dont know if the big wheel/tire combo helped at all or not

Re: tokico performance shock/strut/spring kit F/S

the struts and shocks alone are over $300 new. If I didn't have most of my suspension stuff already purchased, I'd be all over this setup. I've spent close to that on new springs and strut mounts alone. Kinda hoping my 1.5" drop won't look too much lower than this setup, which looks real nice. If you decide to split stuff up, I might be interested in some pieces. More specifically the struts and shocks. Good luck with the sale.

I have also pushed my car to it limit at an open track day and the car handled beautifully ,no body roll tiers were the limit. Night and day over stock. Buy this kit and smileName:  029.jpg

I know, and I wasn't trying to be a pain. I have the IDENTICAL kit. Tokico blues for the shocks/struts, and the tokico 1 1/4 drop springs. You mentioned in one of your posts if "anybody?" was interested, and I was just saying to maybe try lowering the price to help with selling em. Best of luck with the sale though, I love mine, and they made a huge difference on the handling and looks of the car.

Dont u have to change the sway bar mounts for them to work rite? Also dont u need diff shocks and struts (other then stock replacement)? Thought this should be asked for all of us looking.

I got some KYB gt2's all around this summer and now my rear is hitting the bump stops pretty hard, so I have interest in the springs. But if they are 4-5 years old make me a sweet heart deal and my broke as will buy.
