Default Rear strut squeak

Happy New Year!

I have both front and rear strut squeak problem. And I fixed the front
(http://rx300how2.home.comcast.net/~rx300how2/) with WD40. How do you fix the rear strut squeak? Thank you very much!

You are going to have to see this thread https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx3...-gr-2-a-3.html on posts 32 and 33 to see how to access the area where you have to spray on the top. I can tell you that it only does so much and eventually the squeak comes back.

It's actually easier to spray as high as you can in the wheel well where the rear shocks are and also near the base where the bottom of the spring meets the rest of the shock.
