    I have my used Struts (6k miles on them, replaced in Dec '19) and springs (177K). I cant post them for sale on here till next month, so i was going to try on ebay or CL first and wanted to ask others what you would pay. doesnt look like im getting anywhere close to what i paid, which is expected, but figured id ask.

    Go down to the bottom of the forum list. There's a "speak to the mods" section down there and ask if you can go ahead and post.

    What are they? Bilstein? At 177K miles I wouldn't pay you anything. It would cost a fortune for you to ship them so you'd need a local buyer. You might find someone that wants to remove the spring and and place them on a new strut but that's about it.

    they are already separated, so if i should just toss the springs, ill do that. They are just paper weights at this point i guess.

    No I'm saying the spring might be the only part worth anything. I wouldn't buy the strut. We have a lot of people that have removed their original springs and put them on new 5100 strut's.

    Oh my mistake. I see now that your struts only have 6K miles on them. I completely missed that part. Again, what are they?

    I think there is a market for the springs in the Tacoma world. I recall them liking the 4wd ones, it provides them lift with near factory ride.

    thanks! just posted a message for them....though the comments back are making me think it's almost trash worthy by the time shipping comes around.

    I rescind the $50, I thought they were assembled.

    Honestly throw them up on FB marketplace for $100/set and see if anybody shoots you an offer. Shipping would be a killer considering you can get brand new KYB/Monroe shocks for about $50/each or the assembled "quick strut" for $75/each.

    Do the springs have paint marks on them? They really don’t look bad at all.

    I presume you have springs on your truck now? Then you have these. So... doesn't that mean the springs were replaced?:confused:

    BTW: where are you located? It's not in your info.

    I had my front struts replaced back in December but my springs looked shinny and new. So I wasn’t sure if Toyota replaced them as well.

    yea I put an OME lift on the front with new springs.

    I’m in Cumming GA. Need to update that.

    Springs may lift the front end up a little higher but they'll fit.
