Get thee to the junkyard, as IMHO you
are asking for charity. Labor to pull, disassemble, box, and ship will be a
royal PITA.

I have done this for Konis and Bilsteins,
but few sentient beings would take the time to
pull Boge struts apart.

I am helping a friend sell her '79 528i and we need a decent set of OEM (Boge?) front shocks for low cost to get by inspection. If anyone here is parting out one of these BMWs with recent good suspension, please reply here or email. Thank you.

PS: we would like to spend less than 50% new retail after shipping for this repair doing our own work.
