Default Shorter maybe softer shocks

I did a search and this particular thing I cannot see any discussions on.

I already have air suspension but need to get lower on my drop. So no coil set ups really available so I figure since I found adjustable shocks for my last car I could find some type of the same thing for the RX 330. So far no such luck.

Really allot of nothing out there for this car performance wise compared to other cars. If anyone knows a solution to finding a shorter than stock shock (AWD) and or Adjustable please let me know. I wonder if I can use same year Highlander parts? Lots more out aftermarket stuff out there for that.

Thanks

yea its very hard to find parts for the RX i think i spent about almost 3 to 4 yrs looking for parts.... i had the same problem with my rx300 couldn't find any lower shocks for my air suspension and i didnt want to go coilovers. are you running uas? you can shave your strut mounts down thats what i did it will give you that extra half inch or one inch drop more and it will tuck your tires in a little bit more

Yeah there is actually ALLOT more stuff for the RX300 lol! UAS with Accuair. I would not know anything about how to shave them. But I will ask around about that. There really are no coils for my car out in the USA At least in all the searching I found a sport coil that I did not want to bother trying.
