FS: Used Tokico's

by **JavaJoe_2** » Thu Mar 23, 2006 6:14 am

I have a used set of Tokico's. I bought them off of eBay. It looks like they were used with a coilover kit.
The cap is missing on one of them. They don't leak and look good.$200 shipped.
I also have a set of stockers for sale. They come complete with mounts and coils, one complete unit. They have about 45-50k on them.

Did the guy tell you how many miles possibily on them???

I was told when I bought them that they had approximately 5-10k on them. The guy I bought them from lived in Minnesota, and they don't look like they were on his car long. No excessive signs of wear or weather. I have been told that some coilover adjusters will not fit over the caps on some struts. I really don't know this. If someone who knows, could chime in....Please do.

I have been asked several questions in regards to the mileage. I was told when I bought them that they had approximately 5-10K, I don't really know actual mileage. They look in good condition, no corrosion and not weathered.
As for the cap..I think it mainly keeps out dirt and road grime. I don't believe that they actually keep the strut together. It has large bends under the cap that seem to do that. I think if you could cover it (possibly with a cap from your old strut...don't really know if it would fit) you would be good to go.
The shaft of the strut look great. Shiny and no signs of scouring.
As for making noise...I never installed them. Don't know.
These are an inexpensive route to go than new. About 1/2 the price of new.
They are also available for local pickup $150.

Bump...still FS...offers?

It seems to be quite common on Ground Control and SkunkWorks2. The ads say that "machining would be required for fitment".

you have to take the caps off to have the GC fit... the strut is too fat... that is why they took off the cap... dats how mine are n i have no problems...
