    WTB: E30 Front strut assy w/ ABS

    I'm trying to upgrade to Koni adjustables and H&R spots, but my front strut housings are rusted beyond help :curse:

    Looking for a set of strut housings with ABS hubs and sensor cut-outs. Local PNW best, I'd like to pick up or save some $$ on shipping.


    EDIT: Thanks everyone, I've purchased a set of housings.

    I have a set that are setup for GC's so they dont' have the lower spring perches, but you could always weld a set on - could even lower them slightly while you're at it - but I'm in MA.
    Driving is the only way to go faster....

        Thanks guys. I'm still looking for some struts. I'd really like to find some locally (Seattle area) that I could pick up. Seems like a hassle to ship these things.

                Ha ha, VW or Subaru... take your pick.

                Yeah, I got something that's going to work. Turns out I didn't need your set, so I'll give them back to you.

                ...I just put in another order for $150 in misc parts. This rust is kicking my a$$, with a capitol '$'. Know where I can get a new front subframe?

                  Got one of those as well if you can't find one locally.

                    LOL, the subframe comment was mostly sarcasm (though there is a big rust hole around the CA bolt hole on one side). I am so scared to keep tearing further into this car; i keep finding more and more things that have to be replaced...

                    Anyhow, there was a bit of a boondoggle with the struts I got from Funkmasta, but he's being really great about it and has offered me a replacement subframe. We'll see where this leads...:neutral:
