Suspension came from an SVT at a junkyard with 140k miles. Car was not involved in a wreck so it must have been engine/trans related. Front struts are BAT brand no rust in great shape with eibach springs same condition. Feels very stiff implying that they have plenty of like left on them. Rears are Bilstien struts on eibach springs also no rust with plenty of bounce back in them. I would estimate the suspension to have between 30-70k miles on it.

$325 shipped.







 
I'm interested but seems like quite a gamble on untested and unknown mileage struts?
 
I listed it at that price for that reason. However the rear struts have plenty of bounce back. The front struts are both really stiff. The car had 140k and there is no way that suspension has even close to those miles. The springs are clean. Those pics are how I removed them I didnt clean anything.
 
Springs don't really ever go bad and those cost about $250 shipped new, so


$325
-$30 shipping (at least)
-$250 springs
= $45

So you are getting 2 bat struts, 2 bilstein struts, and 4 upper strut mounts for only $45 and that's if his shipping costs are only $30. :rolleyes:

This is a slam'n deal.

Well I wanted to take exception to the statement, "springs don't ever go bad".......really?
Beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder!!
Still a very nice set of springs/struts, Sam. And if the shipping is too the West coast, this is a heck of a deal - Satya, you listening?

Hahahaha, well they do, but clearly these ones are not broke and really purdy :cool:
 
Interested... but how harsh of a ride will these make my svt? Ride now I have pretty much all stock suspension with the fact of having BAT front springs... svt is my dd right now.
 
Bat struts and bilsteins are very close to a stock ride. you wont feel a difference.
