anybody got a set of rear shocks for a nissan sunny just had mot and failed on rear shocks

[pogweasel]

Can you not just get some from your local motor factors? Surely not something that is hard to find for that age of Sunny. Personally, I would not touch used shocks, not worth the bother. I'm stripping down some BMW suspensiony bits later, and all the shocks will be binned straight off

thanks for that fellas but whats it worth to good to scrap and all it failed on was rear shocks one sidelight and front brakes binding any offers

[Milford Cubicle]

No MOT, pretty undesirable - it's only worth scrap value to be honest. Get it MOT'd! Sounds like there's bugger all wrong with it.

apart from what it failed on theres nowt wrong with it the current mot runs out 6/8/08 and new car forces me to rid this one

'Fraid I'm going to say race or weigh it, if you can't do the repairs on a DIY basis; new shocks and deseizing the front calipers is going to cost more than the car is worth if you pay someone else to do it

[pogweasel]

What sort of set up is it at the arse end? Semi-trailing or sommert? Rear shocks are obscenely easy to do if they are. An hour, tops to even the least confident home-twiddler. Again, de-siezing the front calipers isn't hugely hard. If a total car-tard like me can fix those things, anyone can. Even Peter Slinn.

well got me new car so the sunny is up for £200 with 6 months tax and moted til wednesday 6th any offers must be sold it has the 1.4 engine so cheap to run and insure

Stick it on Gumtree with 3 good photos and a decent writeup, should hopefully get some interest.
