    I found a seller that has rears from 2009. Said He never used them, question is.. is it worth to buy? Great deal, but don't waste if they go bad sitting there for almost 6 years LOL.

    for 40 ish more you get brand new ones... no question get new ones.

    Same goes for used 5100's both front and rears... never understood someone buying used shocks that are not rebuildable considering you can get a full set of 5100's for 320ish.

    offer 50

    Some people only want them to get their lift and plan to spend coin on real nice ish later on. Thats what I did. Finally got more then enough to do my rear suspention the way I wanted it. But the 5100 and AAL got me through 2 years while I saved. Will be spending coin to do the front soon.

    5100s are a great intro lift and nothing wrong with used if you aint planning on having them on for life (My case)
