WTB: SS/TC struts
 
As the title says. Not really looking to spend $266 for 2 brand new struts, especially when the right side is unnecessarily more money than the left. Also if a struts + shocks all together deal is available, I'll take that.

I always felt the 2.4 struts were pretty good. Add on some lowering springs and your set. GL on your search.

slobalt08 Jun 19, 2009 12:45 AM

I have SS/TC springs I'm trying to finish a FE5 conversion. I'm not into the whole lowering fad.

ss.tc is sooooo much better ehn anythinglol

mkurley is selling one in the classifieds i believe

slobalt08 Jun 19, 2009 01:26 AM

Yeah but he's missing the left strut, and selling for $240. Brand new for the same thing with the left strut missing comes to about $240. :nono: WAY too over priced. I'm not the only one to say it either someone else said the same in his thread.

I actually put FE1 springs on my 2.4 to smooth out the ride. I'm actually considering putting the stockers back on because I cant corner for shit now (which I knew I would loose when I changed them)

That would be me. TO his defense, he was asking more and now that it's $240 shipped it is not that bad of a deal at all actually. About $50 cheaper than new with shipping. Maybe make an offer?!

Wrong. I made a mistake I just corrected it. Brand new on gmpartsonline.net which I found is the cheapest (by shipping price) For a new right strut, and new shocks, but NO left strut is $236. He's asking $240. For used parts, that is way overpriced. Maybe he should buy a new left strut, THEN try to sell. Then maybe he might get some offers, but he still needs to lower that price.

NWAE Cobalt Jun 19, 2009 01:48 AM

shipped I paid 275 for a slightly used set, although mine was from a buddy but shipped from texas

slobalt08 Jun 19, 2009 01:56 AM

Gmpartsdirect.com is more expensive. Use gmpartsonline.net.

There is a glitch in the parts direct system that when you select quantity (2) for the shocks and proceed to checkout the first time, it only shows (1) for quantity at checkout. Have to go back and re-add another one. Look at your quantities, only 1 shock. Happened to me too.

slobalt08 Jun 19, 2009 02:01 AM

It comes with both left and right shocks. There is no left and right. I got the PN's off this site in suspension. It said both.

NWAE Cobalt Jun 19, 2009 02:03 AM

go to the sticky in the suspension thread and find the part numbers there, its about 360 shipped from gmpartsdirect...i priced it out mult times

mtbrent Jun 19, 2009 02:03 AM

hmm...can this be confirmed? I would think you would have the option of buying only 1, and at roughly $45, two would be a steal.

you can only buy one yes...but you need to buy both of them lol

slobalt08 Jun 19, 2009 02:05 AM

Aw son of a bitch! And you guys aren't listening to me. GMpartsONLINE.NET is cheaper.
