Default TT suspension

just want opinions and a lil clarification on this
i found a used set of supra tt struts and springs for 200 bucks they have roughly 70k miles
"complete set of shocks+springs for a mkIV Supra (94+) Bilstein shocks w/ TRD springs and factory top hats" but i wanna make sure

is it a direct swap?
and also would this be a good buy or risky?

Yes direct swap, but use your SC top hats, and be sure to have an extra set of hands and you can have it all swapped out in about an hour.

Sounds like a good deal to me.

Is there a reason why to use the SC top hats? When i had TT suspension i just used the top hats that came with them.

You can use either one, just my preference to use the SC tophats, thus I suggest them...what can I say, Im biased towards the SC

any 93-98 Mk4 Supra suspension parts will fit your SC. Some will need additional parts, such as sway bars need the MK4 end-links, but in the end, yes, everything is compatible.
