[radiuslight]

I want to replace all my dampers and saw these!
I'm on a crazy budget because of school!

If they are in good condition its an okay deal. The struts are basically oem replacements and the springs I have not heard of before.

$100 cash.

Goldline springs are a little known brand, but at least they're better than a no-name knockoff... I wouldn't pay much for them. I wouldn't really trust them either.

As said before, GR2s are OEM replacement, though they can usually handle a drop.



Honestly, I wouldn't buy a used setup unless you know where it came from. Those shocks could be nearly dead already. Just save your money and buy new. That setup wouldn't cost more than $300 brand new.

Also, in a day, that listing may be gone. Please copy the contents of a Craigslist ad whenever you post about it, so people in the future can see what you're talking about.

cool I will check em out......I'm gonna ask if I can get the shocks alone!

I guess your right about the ad....I will remember that!

[deevergote]

Those shocks shouldn't cost more than $50 each brand new. If they're all in working condition, I wouldn't pay more than $75 for just the shocks. They could last 3 years, or they could blow on you tomorrow. You never know with used!

$100 cash.

if you can get them for that price its an ok deal but like whats been said before you don't know how they've been used or abused

ok a friend of mine just ate shit on his CB....ca-ching! Hes ok!!
so I got a new question.... I can probably find out myself by interchanging the parts myself but this is faster since I dont have an area to work at home.....working on cars in the street is ilegal here!

so I need to change the drivers stut and coil and the passengers upper and lower control arms.....so the parts that are left intact are from the Drivers side on my friend car.
Can I use the lower and upper arms from the drivers side on the passengers side? I'm thinking I cant use the lower arm! but what about the upper arm they seem to look the same but you guys tell me!

Sorry me and my crazy budget.....help me out please!

I don't think the arms are symmetrical

[deevergote]

No, they aren't. You need to use the arm from the proper side, unfortunately.

They may work, but why risk it. Honda did it for a reason and IM sure they knew what they were doing.

[radiuslight]

ok...damn I guess it was too good to be true!
coo coo thxs for the help.....
