I got these years ago. The most expensive one was the Mimikyu, which I paid around $200 for at the time. The others were roughly $50–$100 each.

I’m planning to sell them either privately or at a card show. How would you price the full set? Would you simply add up the recent sold prices on eBay, or would you take the total of recent sales and add a little extra since it’s being sold as a complete set?

I have a 1996 Suzuki Carry DD51T and I’m experiencing a death wobble at 45+ mph with 12-inch wheels. I’ve read through a lot of the forums, and it seems like some people recommend reworking/rebuilding the entire front end. Whatever that actually means, I’m totally illiterate when it comes to car maintenance and repairs. 😂

I did find a few posts where people were able to fix the wobble by replacing the tension rod bushings. It looks pretty straightforward—jack up the truck, remove a few bolts, and replace the old rubber bushings with new ones.

The generic/OEM-style bushings I’ve found are around $80–$90. However, someone on Facebook mentioned using Honda bushings on their Carry. Apparently, they fit but required shaving some rubber off with a razor and enlarging the hole in the washer slightly.

Has anyone else tried using Honda bushings on their Carry? If so, which ones did you use, and how did they work out?

Also, has anyone found reasonably priced tension rod bushings that fit the DD51T without having to modify them? I’d appreciate any recommendations!
