so installed the led license plate light today, and then went to do my CDD delete. First I tried to gut the old unit, that ***** is not coming apart, second I tried to go find a brake union adapter and no bueno. The local autozone is stupid and had no idea what I was talking about.
Anyone have the part number from where they got it from? or a spare one?

Yes OEM IS300 suspension components are adjustable same as any other car, but OEM parts limit amount of adjustments.
You can lower IS300 1.5 - 2 inches and adjust OEM parts to almost perfect specs.
Almost perfect meaning that there might still be red on your alignment chart, but not bad enough to eat tires.
Just make sure you get 4 wheel alignment after it gets lowered and you'll find out if you need camber kit or not.
If you skip out on the 4 wheel alignment after lowering your car, you will eat tires (I learned this the hard way)
Supra / SC300 suspension is interchangeable.
I'm 99% sure that IS300 suspension is compatible.

I thought I would ask about the Is300 chassis compared to the MKIV/Sc300 because they share some basic parts also. Time to start digging through my parts bin to find parts from my MKIV that works lol.
