    they should not be 300 for rebuild.. find someone else. There's no one who sells this condition shocks not yet leaking or damaged at 40%

    You'd be in them 900 after a rebuild, which is what I would pay for a set of used rear shocks at most.

    It's not work saving a couple hundred bucks to me for a set of used ones..

    When I parted out my Tundra before I sold it I had a pair of Icons on it. They were ext. travel coilovers with 14'' 700lb king coils and the sale included the original springs as well. Coilovers were in good condition and 95% street use w/ 40,000 mile. Priced them at $650 and they sold pretty quick. May have sold them a little cheap but..... Just to give you an Idea of my experience.

    $300 is pretty standard for shock rebuild with Bilstein, ADS, and King

    Those are Fox 14" 3-tube bypass shocks, and Deaver spring expo heavy duty leaf pack from archive as well. Yeah the hammer hangers make a big difference but this is also spring under axle instead of normal spring over, thats where most of the difference in droop comes from. Rides great though, can't thank the guy at Accutune offroad for setting the shocks up perfectly, and Archive for providing great customer service to back up his awesome parts.

    Thanks for all the love too guys, I appreciate it... Spent a lot of hours busting' knucks on my truck and it's always nice to hear I wasn't wasting my time/making a fool of myself :rofl:
