How much are these Koni's worth?

These are off my parts car, and was just curious how much they are worth. Here the parts numbers, and pictures.

The part numbers on the left read KN2 29-87 951 343 031 08 and the right reads KN2 951 343 032 08, and the rears have similar numbers.

I really don't know, but what year is the car, is it a N/A or Turbo? I ask because I could use a good set of struts on my 944 85.5n/a.
Thanks,
Larry

Those look like M474 option struts. Check the tops to see if they are externally adjustable, if not the spring needs to be removed so the strut can be compressed (same type of adjustment as the rear shocks). Depends on condition, mileage..etc. I sold a set recently exactly like that with under 100k miles on them (front and rears) for $400 shipped a few months ago. It took a while to find a buyer at that price.

Looks like a late offset car also from the rotor hats. The struts are from a Turbo (951 part # and brake cooling scoop brackets). Its possible they were an add on after the fact. Check the option codes in the trunk (look for 474).

Yea I finally found out they were the M474 option. But the last part numbers a 08, not 06 like Pelican Parts says it should, but the rest of the numbers match. They don't have a lot of miles on them I'm sure, and they are adjustable. They weren't optioned on the car brand new, somebody put them on. I know this because I have the original window sticker, lol.

Also the rear shocks have part number similar, like the left one is this "951 333 032". Now is that M030 or M474?

A similar set of struts just sold on EvilBay for under $200.

M030's are ride height adjustable, yours are not....

Cool. But I just took off the struts and they say "Adjustable" on them. Does that mean adjustable for something else?

And how and the hell do I get the rear shocks off! I can't budge the bolts holding them on! I searched and found out how to do it, but is there something I'm missing?

The bottom bolts can be a bear cause its tough to get enough leverage. This method has always worked great for me.. .



M474 shocks were rebound adjustable only. The M030 were rebound, compression and ride height adjustable.

Haha. I love your method, ha. Ok now what about the rear shocks? They have the same number as the M030 ones.

likely the struts are adjustable rebound

they could be converted struts - the part numbers indicate the 951 series hydraulic strut - the last 2 digits indicate the specific application - for example, 12 is 968 standard

shock bolts - impact gun
