Default IS250 RWD vs IS250 AWD rear suspension any differences?

Hi. Does anybody have any idea whether rear suspension from 2006 IS 250 RWD is the same as 2006 IS 250 AWD? Why I am asking is I bought 2006 IS 250 RWD and one side's rear supspension has been moved to the front a little and needs to be change (I quess) One guy has a lot of parts but from 2006 IS 250 AWD. I am wondering whether the both suspensions (on rear) are identical on these two models? Thank you for any advice.

I don't think there are any major difference but the AWD had more unsprung weight which translates into a slighly poorer ride.

I believe the rear is the same, the only difference is the front which awd's had a c shaped design to avoid the axle
(Please correct me if i am wrong)
