Set of new Koni on Ebay

Not sure what the going rate for a set of Koni are, but these seems like a good deal.

Re: Set of new Koni on Ebay

It looks like they may be 4 front shocks part#8610 1291. The rears are 86-2521. He doesn't mention 86-2521 in his listing.
A set is usually $820.00 for all four corners.
P.S. I sent him an email to verify.

Re: Set of new Koni on Ebay

New OLD stock, meaning they may have been sitting on shelf the last five years or longer. Thats not a good thing right? Would love to have a set on my car

Don't read too much into any one of those words out of context. Cripes, "stock" itself could imply any amount of shelf time. The "old" simply implies being obsolete or out of production.

The way it's told, if you're going to get them, you're running out of options fast.

Just remember that the warranty doesn't transfer and should the koni's fail, the new owner will bare the cost of the rebuild.

But a Koni rebuild runs around $50 a piece at a circle track shop. Whole lot cheaper then the crap Subaru calls a strut.

Do you have any recommendations for a place in this area that can rebuild?
