Hi All,

I have no clue on whether there is any demand for the factory 2016 Legend series GU 10 Wagon suspension components, so I thought would ask you guys if its worth trying to sell?
The original gear has less than 20km's on it and is a complete set of shocks/coils/drag link/steering damper/castor bushes as pictured. The suspension has only travelled from the Nissan car yard to the suspension place and was replaced with a GVM upgrade kit. Is it just shed junk or is there any kind of demand for the factory stuff? If so, any ideas on a fair price for the kit?

seems a shame , but most replace their OE suspension for a better 50mm set up.
Ive only ever heard of one bloke who took his 4x4 to have factory suspension fitted.
We could not talk him into upgrading, he stated thats the way the factory wants it
so thats good enough for me, that was a Toyota four runner, so no loss lol

I'm surprised the dealer didn't offer you something for it.

Occasionally you see people asking for it. Places like TJM and ARB have to PAY to get rid of a lot of stuff like that in dumpsters so... You can have a crack at selling on eBay or something starting very low. You never know.

Yep, I guess I'll just keep it as shed ornaments and keep an eye on the forums for anyone looking for a factory replacement shock or coil etc. Maybe I'll bring out my inner artistic flare and fire up the mig and turn it into something I can sell to a hipster for a good profit! :animierte-smilies-t
