WTB: OEM MCS struts/shocks, assembled

Looking for low-miles OEM shocks and springs, still assembled, for a 2005 MCS (2006 should fit).

Thanks,
Brock

I know it's not exactly what you're looking for, but I've got disassembled springs and struts from an 04. OEM rear sway bar as well. PM me if you're interested.

Thank you for the offer, but I'm just trying to avoid the added labor of swapping the springs back to the stock shocks after a Koni install.

I know there's someone out there contemplating new coilovers right now.

Tell you what, my car is due in a few weeks. Brand new '06 S. Make me a reasonable offer on my new sets... and I'll sell them right off the brand new car. Email me if you are interested. I'm looking to lower mine and this might be my push to do the struts along with my springs! (I have a lead on new lowering springs, anyone have a deal on new struts?)

Joel's PM was to me. Thanks, Joel- I've replied.

I'll be interested if I don't find something sooner, stargate823, however I would prefer you decide on an asking price. You can search this forum to see what they are going for.

I'm still looking.

Brock,

Some coilover kits require you to use the stock top hat and bump stops as my Koni kit did. It may be hard to find a complete set. Just an FYI.

Brock,

If I understand your request correctly, I believe I may have what you're looking for. My 06 MCS has 900 stress-free Northern California miles showing on the odometer. Sure enough, it will be in the shop March 13-17 for new coil-overs, brakes and swaybars. The nearly-new shocks & springs will be out of the car and available by the 17th at the latest , if you are interested.

Stephan

As a further note, should you happen to know of anyone looking, the following 900 mile parts are also coming off at the same time:

4 nearly-new 16" V-Spokes with the OEM Dunlop RF tires, no dings, scrapes or curb rash.

06 MCS OEM front brake discs/calipers/pads/lines.

06 MCS OEM front and rear sway bays

06 MCS OEM rear lower control arms

06 MCS OEM Exhaust System (though why any one might want this I don't know)

Thanks. Shocks/springs are en route from Stephan now. Unless UPS drops them, I think I'm good.
