That would be my major concern...If he wrote it off, happy days. If he "just wants a change" you know your buying someone else's headache.

If he "just wants a change" you know your buying someone else's headache.Although it does not appear to be the case in this thread, but I would stay away from suspension from a written off car as it is most likely damaged Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85034-f6-ute-springs-vs-coilovers/#findComment-1390444 Share on other sites More sharing options...
