So my Lexus parts guy isn't on the up and up Since SEAWELL is out of business, can anyone confirm if these are the right part numbers and price is correct?


I am looking for:

OEM Sport Shocks
Sport Sway Bar


1) 48510-80131 ABSORBER FRONT 2 2 $185.95 EACH

2) 48530-80141 ABSORBER REAR 2 2 $190.51 EACH

3) 48812-50130 BAR, STABIL 1 1 $105.3

With the rear sport sway bar (# 48812-50130), you need the sport bushings (# 58818-50020). (The sport sway bar is 1 mm thicker than stock.) The sport sway bar and bushings were offered together as a kit: # 48812-50130KIT.

Consider doing only the sport sway bar first, then decide whether you want the sport shocks as well.

Thank you tom

Let me ask if they have the kit

Tom57

The Kit may have been a Sewell exclusive. The sway bar at $105 is a fair price.

Thank you Tom.

I did the "push down each corner" test of the shock. Lot of bounce to the ounce in the car....

My wife and i buy lots of stuff on Amazon

Never bought oem parts

Trustworthy for oem parts ?

Tom57

Yes absolutely, just verify that the seller is selling genuine OEM parts. The seller for the shocks (above links) represents "genuine factory item."

Don't forget the front sway bar bushes while you are at it.

Why not just pick up KYB GR2's for right around $95 each? They are the OEM manufacturer and the quality is the same. Others have mentioned the GR2's are a little more sportier then the regular suspension shocks. This would be perfect for the sportier feel and at 1/2 the price of the shocks from Lexus.

Hi Tom, Would those be the part #s for a 2005 LS?

ryanSC300lover- did you ever install the sway bar? How do you like it?

Thanks, Tom

Tom57

Yes.

I did the install
Including the bushings

Didn't turn it into a sports car
But really flattened it out

And I enjoy it a lot more

Next are new shocks
