I have a set of Viking Performance Crusader Shocks for sell, but please read the full description.
These are the the "Cruise" version where they are much softer than your typical street shocks. The model is B358CD and works with vehicles up to a lowering of 2 inches. They will come with Steeda Billet Rear Shock Mounts (555 8151) and Steeda Bumpstops (555 4445, the whole adjustable kit NOT included) made from polyurethane. The entire setup have about 4000 miles on them. I am heading towards a different direction with my suspension setup and will not be needing these anymore.
Here's the fine print, I was able to uninstall one of the Steeda shock mounts off of one of the dampers. The other one is "stuck" on there. I attempted to remove it, but the strut nut was still too tight on the threads of the strut. After multiple attempts and many double D style tools, I finally given in on this and decided to get new ones instead. Pictures are provided below as to what I mean by stuck and can't remove the strut nut any further once the nut was loosen to level with the tip of the strut. So I re-tighten it back down and torqued to 34 ft/lbs. The other Viking damper will come with the Steeda shock mount loosely on there and I recommend lock tight upon installing them again. I will include and extra strut nut since I do have an extra one.
To answer some questions:
Why is it stuck?
Any other questions, please feel free to ask as I need these gone. Some people may see this as a deal and others as a hassle, but I think there is someone out there that may what this package deal.
SOLD

To answer some questions:
Why is it stuck?
- Not sure, it is really tight on there and I am assuming I put too much Loctite on it.
- Yes, you can hear it in the cabin, but I have a loud exhaust and music playing all the time to mask it.
- Used and cracking, none are broken apart, just cracked from use.
