I will have a used set of all four struts on Wednesday for sale. Thats when these will be removed off of my buddies 1998 SC 400. They are causing excessive tire wear on the front for his liking, even though he has it aligned several times. I have personally driven the car, and they have no squeaks or rattles. I will post pictures when they are removed. They will be uploaded by Wednesday afternoon. I am trying to have a buyer in mind before then. I will be asking $400 plus shipping and PayPal fees. These lower the car as much as Esplier springs or a tad more. Keep in mind, you cannot mix the stock SC springs with these struts, must use TT struts or springs. NO MIX MATCHING! I will even post pictures of them installed on the car before removed. Pm me for more info. Thanks

I have a full set of stock struts and springs that we are going to put back on. These will be for sale. I don't think he wants to trade. I will ask him.

Guys, here is the update.. We have removed the rears.. The guy my buddy bought the car from lied. Anyway, they are the factory OEM struts from a SC and he had cut the springs over one coil in length.. Secondly, the front were not Bilstein, they are Tokico Blues with Esplier blue springs. We couldnt remove the fron ones, due to the sway bar links being rusted out. We ordered new ones, we are going to have to cut these off. Anyway, if anyone wants the rears they are free, just pay for shipping and a little gas. If you want the front ones, once removed, he said $125.00 shipped. This price is with all the hardware and top hats. Sorry for the confusion, but being honest. I was only going by what my buddy told me.
