I've just had the suspension on my v70r 1998 replaced with new kit from PFV, the old stuff is off and just sat there, its the original stuff and all intact but I'm not sure if its any good. The car has done 150k

The car passed its MOTs all the time until recently an only failed on a lower arm but as I'm restoring the car I replaced the nimovat/original kit with new kit.

The bits are sat in my garage at the moment, does anyone know how I can test them to see if they're worth keeping or shall I just scrap them? If they're worth keeping I can find space as I'd like to keep the original parts for the car just in case I fancy putting them back on.
