    As the title states, I'm really wondering what I should do with my old factory shocks and ucas. I see it two ways, I could try to sell them some how or just keep them and potentially swap them out for my ome lift and light racing ucas when I get another tacoma on down the road. In addition, is the demand for used oem parts high enough to be worth any potential hassle of selling to someone? Any thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated!

    Factory parts like that arent in high demand so it might be tough to try and sell them. I held onto my stock suspension parts after my lift just cause.

    You should be able to sell the shocks if they are in good condition, UCAs might be tough.

    I ended up taking most of my OEM parts to a local dismantler, Cal Mini Truck http://www.calminitruck.com/ and they gave me $200 for F/R shocks, non-TSB leafs, and UCAs
