Hey

I have some brand new old stock original Nissan rear shocks to suit 1200 coupe.
original packaging etc, been sitting around for ages, made by KYB, come with fitting kit
(rubber mounts/washers etc)

Just brought some Koni adjustables from the States so these are now surplus to my requirements.

$100 delivered, First in first served

I have yet to read up on it, but how hard is it to remove the original leaf springs and switch over to these shocks in the rear?

coupe rear shocks are different to sedan ones.

What are you talking about removing leafs for? only reason to remove leave is to whack another spring and have them reset (thats what I am about to undertake with my coupe)

Are they still working sweet? They're probably WAAAY too soft for a C110 but it's still vaguely tempting.

they havent been used, but there is some surface rust around the threaded end, from being lying around for years and years.
They feel alright, but I am no expert.
