End of proble, I think you could get rid of them that way if they are just taking up space...In the E-bay auction, have the auction for the handling fee..shocks are free.....I've done that before to clear stuff out of my garage I was going to throw out, and made a couple of bucks in ther process..Try it!

Now once I factor in what I could sell the used coilovers for it gets to the point where it is hardly worth the hassle of taking the car to the shop and waiting and waiting for them to finish the change over.
I just had them throw the stock springs and shocks away when I had my coilovers installed.
Same thing when I got the new exhaust put on. Threw the old one in the dumpster
Same thing when install sways. toms braces etc. threw the old stuff away.
I have saved two items the stock differential and the stock torqueconverter. I'm not really sure it would make sense to put the stock TC back in as that would be pretty much all day job and cost $500 plus and all I could get out of used TC might be $600-700.

I just hate storing that kind of stuff I guess it makes sense if you can get it put on and taken off cheap and fast.
