I'm building coilovers, but haven't pulled the old struts from my daily driver yet. I need the following odds and ends from an old set of junker struts someone might have laying around. All pics shamelessly stolen from redraif's excellent thread.
Lower washer:
Upper washer:
Bonus points if you have the dust boot:
and the upper mounting bolts and washers:
I need these parts for both sides, shipped to 49686. Please respond to this thread with your price, or email me Shane (AT) SmithMI.com. I'm really bad at checking PM's on here. Thanks!

Coil Overs. My ignorant question of the day, well my first one, is why ? Edjumacate me. Second question. Which thread was it (redraif's) ? I am pissed that I need to by both rear upper strut mounts when it is just the rubber bushing that is bad. I am gonna look into rebuiling mine.

There's many reasons to make / buy coilovers. Some people get them to run wider tires / rims. Others get them to lower the car or adjust the stance however they choose. I'm making a set as part of a 3800 swap onto a spare cradle. The old struts are tired anyways, might as well upgrade while I'm at it.
Redraif's thread is here:https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum2/HTML/118751.html#lastpost It's based on an old thread of fierohoho's that is in the FAQ section. I'm following redraif's guide because it's more current and there's been some discoveries over the years.
Thanks for the dustboot hookup. That's not the Fiero part that redraif uses, but it might work.
Anyone have those washers?
