Strut question 94 ES300...please help.
Fellow CL members, does anyone know if the 95-96 Front Struts will fit a 94 ES300? I am trying to order the KYB GR-2's and I'm not sure which ones to order. I believe someone said that you have to switch over a lower seat bearing if you order the 94 strut part number but the 95-96 part number was a direct fit? any help would be great....thanks

There should not be any diffrence between the 94-96 suspension.
When I was replacing my struts I was looking at those and at my local Napa they had the KYB GR-2's for the 94, they are about twice the cost of those which would just the replace the oem ones. But I wish I had gone with the KYB instead of the ones I got.

And since none of us work for KYB or have the catalog memorized, why not consider going to the source? 
It might be better to get the word directly from KYB, that way you won't despise any member who tried to help, but didn't know for 100% certain. Sure, the 92-96 generation two ESs should be completely the same, but...
(Just caught up on my PMs; this is what I was going to recommend in a reply, but here's a handy thread you started.
