Default 25 Sets 06 Z06 Shocks Inbound!

Hi All,
We have over 25 sets of 2006 Z06 shocks inbound. They will fit any C5 or C6. We offer them for 196.76 shipped on our website. I have made up a parts kit number for them so you don't have to mess with typing in the numbers and quantities. You can go to www.fredbeansgmparts.com and go to the bottom where it says Enter OEM number. Type part number 06z06shocks under Chevrolet make.

That's it, the rest is history.
Enjoy. Gene

No, that's the set of 4. Actually cheaper than replacement C5 shocks.

I couldn't pass up a price like that, so I just ordered mine as well. I figure all 25 sets will be gone by tonight.

Question; For my C5 are they hard to install?
Also, are you guys buying them because your having problems with your ride or because you just want to upgrade with this new product at a great price?
Thanks.

Hi All,
It seems as if I have confused some of you. This is the price for a set of 4 shocks. I thought it was quite clear, but some have said not. I apologize.
