I recently got some TEIN coilovers and sometime this week I'm gonna try to put those on. So I am selling my Hotchkis springs. I don't post much on the board and I wouldn't want anyone to have doubts about getting jipped so if anyone does you can PM me now, IM me on AIM....sn (jamesyb0y) with a zero and exclude the parentheses, OR email me at james_noravong@hotmail.com whatever you like.

And of course these are used so they don't look all cool and shiny, honestly instead they are silver mixed with maybe some dirt and maybe some faded parts but if u want i can clean off the dirt haha. But its not like the color is gonna make it perform worse, Hotchkis are good springs. I read a lot of posts where someone comes in and says hey I can get those cheaper. Well I saw someone ask for $140 shipped, I'll ask to make 110 bucks off this and charge you the real shipping price, unless it goes over $140, then I'll make it cheaper than that for you but u have to wait til I find out how much shipping is cus I dont ship springs often so I dont know. I do paypal cus I don't want anyone sending a money order or check and stress about whether or not they will receive the product, plus its easier for both parties. Thanks for looking.

Let me add that local pickup is fine but I will sell it to the person who contacts me first even if I do have to ship it.

hey jerry, do the hotchkis springs require the camber plates so that the tires wont wear unevenly or were they fine without it and just an alignment?

I can't tell you how many miles are on the springs, I can tell you that they are 1 yr and a month old b/c I switched from H&R springs to these in Feb or March of last year...2003. H&Rs were a good ride but just not stiff enough so I got these.

I would send my stock struts with these springs cus I honestly have no use for them but I'm not gonna give anybody anything that will make them bounce all over the road and get some strange lawsuit or something forced on me if they bounce into a wall, so lets scratch that, better to use the stocks you have now. BTW thanks PoweredByRice on that shipping quote, dang that was pricey eh? i wonder how much it is without the struts though, im sure the struts was why it costed so much. I need to check my email now incase someone besides Roger was interested, if not I'll contact you soon Roger or actually contact me from the info above

n/p man. BTW hey RogerGTS how come you wanna buy springs, It looks like you already have a perfect drop with those 18s on there, just my opinion. This is not gonna help my sale at all haha but I can always put these on ebay thats no problem, but yeah I like 18s with TRD springs, only reason why I got Hotchkis springs are because I have 17s and wanted a lower drop in the back.

yeah, i was thinking about it and i think the drop is enough for me, never bottom out or scrape so i guess i'll pass these up. Great price btw.
