Default FS: Bilstein / Eibach race shocks

These are threaded aluminum body race shocks valved for the 928. They come complete with adaptor brackets for the front and upper rear but you will need to make your own for the lower rear control arm. The fronts have 800 lb springs but I cannot see what the rears are. It looks like 350lb to me.
$1,750 for the set

It has had 2 owners in CA over the past 10 plus years. The current owner sold it to me but is keeping the engine, trans and brakes. The cage is not legal in most clubs so I saw little value in selling it as a rolling tub. It may surface as a Lemons car.

Bummer is the Lemons cage rules are fairly strict.....if it won't pass NASA or SCCA, then it won't pass lemons either.....

If your asking price gets cut in half I may be interested. I read you got the shaft on some grey binder manuals..... Care to work out a partial trade? I would send the manuals for you to check out first.

Regards,

Aaron

The mounts and hardware look Mickey-moused if you ask me.

The lower mounts are for the front or rear? Is this a plug and play setup? What are the shocks supposed to be used on? Could I get some close up pics of the mounts(the welds)

You will need to weld an attachment point on the rear lower arm to use these.

They are racing shocks, therefor they have no one car they are from.

would you include the rear control arms that were used with these so I wouldn't need to alter anything?
