Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

10 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I bought these shocks for my 99 Cab. http://www.ebay.com/itm/301640913126?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT The price seemed pretty good, so I am getting worried that they are broken. They came from this car: Can someone look at the ebay listing and let me know if they look ok. I am worried about the right front one as the crash was close to it. Also I am assuming these will lower my car by 30mm. or 1"? I thought these were just H&R on top of stock but it looks likes they are bilsteins, is there anything I should know about those? any adjustments? I am having it professionally installed when they get in. Thank you. So excited if this works.

POST 2Original post

Is the one on the far right from the crashed side?

I have no idea about shocks. I dount they would mark which side they came from, they have those little tags on them but can't read the side.

POST 4Original post

Looks like an awesome find! Even if one becomes an issue and needs replacing it looks like a steal and appear to be in good/newish condition...

POST 5Original post

They're tagged Front Left, Front Right, etc. *facepalm*

I can see that they are marked on the tags (FR, FL). The one for the right looks slightly tweaked to me (just may be the photo). You can just replace one shock if necessary, as long as they don't have too many miles on them.

POST 7Original post

I don't know if I'd trust the front right unit, but at that price you can replace it and still be ahead.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Had them installed few days ago, and did alignment today, we copied the GT3 settings for alignment and it came out very good, not perfect, but it should not cause problems. I guess will see in couple months if its eating up the front tire. The mechanic thinks its the side that was crashed but since the seller took the tags off we have no idea which one is which. ????!!!(WTF WHY?). .. Total cost would was 400$ usd + 560CDN labour. Little higher than what I was thinking so no more mods this year. Not sure how much this set would be brand new? 400 for H&$ coilover plus 1000$ for bilstein shocks? I think it looks great, drives great not much different from previous, not bottoming out but looks good. Here is befreo and after.
