Bran new TPIS shocks and struts
These are bran new front struts and rear shocks from TPIS. I had a set on my Z for years and loved them! Just got new Koni yellows to replace them, so I warranted these from TPIS. From there web site:
Stock Corvette shocks are very harsh. We have found by revalving the shocks they are much less harsh. Test lap times came down nicely, the car was easier to drive and the ride quality improved dramatically. We have carried this technology over into the Camaro/Firebird and offer a full line of custom shocks.
TPiS Super Shocks are finished in two-part polyurethane paint for durability and appearance. They are filled with high-pressurs nitrogen gas and controlled by full-displacement valving. The piston rod is chromed, polished and sealer with an o-ring instead of a nylon band. Super Shocks have a 1-3/16 piston bore. Super Struts have a 32mm bore.
$200 shipped for all 4, Paypal only please.

Re: Bran new TPIS shocks and struts
I am just wondering why you are asking 200 with shipping when you can buy it from them for 176 plus ship which is 15-20 dollars more. Just trying to help you sell these quicker

Re: Bran new TPIS shocks and struts
I run my car on the track (roadcourse) just for fun, but when I had these shocks and struts on, my car felt solid with Z28 springs and 1LE bars. I upgraded to Koni yellows and Eibach pro kit springs with the same 1LE bars and with the Koni's on the softest setting, the TPIS shocks "felt" better to me on the track. I'm still playing with the Koni's adjustments, just a matter of some more time on the track. Not to mention the old TPIS shocks never leaked after 10 years on the Z!! Not a bad package for the $$$

Re: Bran new TPIS shocks and struts
Yes bran new! Comes with bran new mounting hardware and bushings too. Sorry for the confusion. I bought them in '00 from TPIS with a lifetime warrenty, so when I put my Koni's on, since I live 45 minutes from TPIS, I just brought my old ones down there and had them warrenty them.
