Want some input on buying used suspension!

Hey Everyone! I'm looking for other peoples thoughts! Someone in my area is selling a stage 4 Icon kit for $400, which seems like a wildly good deal. As such, I'm concerned that something is wrong!

From his description, the shocks need a rebuild (he claims to not know the mileage), and one of the front coils is snapped (how???).

So, people who are hopefully more knowledgeable than me! How often are these shocks destroyed where a simple rebuild won't bring them back? Should I consider this deal, or run away for my life?

Also, how hard are these to rebuild at home? I've rebuilt motorcycle and mtb suspension, but being on a truck definitely brings more fear!

 

Hard Pass. Only a fool would buy somebody else's worn out junk.

 

Yeah, I'd pass too.

 

I would only buy it if I needed it for spare parts to rebuild another suspension, and pay him like 50 bucks for everything.

 

Bingo

 

Yeah, that was my vibe as well! Thanks all for the input!
