Paid $1,450 new. They have about 15k miles on them. Perfect condition as far as I know. I will dismount them and double check this weekend. Spring rates are 10kg-F/8kg-R. High adjustable (wrenches included). These are double piston (old school design), so they do make woosh woosh noise and that is the only reason they are for sale. Make an offer or I throw it on ebay.

It made that noise since purchase. I was told the noise is normal for twin tube nitrogen filled. I've gone through two engines and could not afford to replace them untill now. Girlfriend says they are too stiff and too noisy. If you notice my Border Racing exhaust is for sale also for the same reasons. Notice the brake line holder. I need to pay off the stupid credit cards for the replacement parts.

The basic twin-tube hydraulic shock absorber uses a central tube to house the fluid, piston, and rod, with an outer tube acting as a reservoir for the displaced fluid as the piston moves through its suspension cycle. As the shock compresses, typically making a faint hissing sound, oil is moved past the base valves and into the reservoir chamber.

Comes with upper pillowball mount which is optional on Tein and others in the $1k to $1.5k range. It's approximately a $200 extra charge.

Our entry level suspension features adjustable ride hight and fixed rate damper. For those that wish to lower their ride, but don't feel the need to adjust dampers. Includes upper pillowball mounts.

Dropped them off at Zeal Motorsports (JIC-Magic USA) to have them looked at. If any are leaking they will be fixed.
