    Just did a comprehensive comparison of the parts we purchased used versus those same or most similar parts if purchased new today, and it turns out we saved over $2,300.

    And this is just on the shit we bought for Jen :cool:

    ehh, we can rebuild the shocks and Kartek has the rebuild kits for pretty cheap.

    Plus she wants them to check out the bumps we picked up to see what kind of seals they need. Lastly we also need heim spacers so the coilovers can mount on the stock mounting points, but I think Anthony has some.

    DSM does revalving AND rebuilding for $50 + shipper PER shock, right?

    so I think we will rebuild them ourselves, and send them to DSM for revalve, but that depends entirely on shipping costs.
