Hey all, I just got an 07 350 awd, needs new struts...does not appear to have adaptive ride control. I looked online, but couldn't find the parts. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Kyb aftermarket and they only sell them for the rears. If you want to replace the fronts it is dealer only.

The rear aftermarket kyb are the same as oem. You can buy the rears for about a little over $100 from Justsuspension.com thats what I did for my awd.

You maybe able to fit IS250 AWD front struts, but not sure of valving. I believe they are the same struts

Couple questions...

How did you know it needed new struts?

Also... how many miles are on your GS?

Thanks!

It is "floaty" on the highway, it has 74K on it. Any time I hit an expansion joint or bump it takes a while to settle....what do you think? I am somewhat experienced in diagonosing suspension issues, but am new to the GS.

I would inspect them before replacing them. Take it to the dealer and ask for a courtesy check up. That way you can take it in for the VVTI recall

If only I had a dealer near by, nearest is about an hour an a half away...

you can do the old "push on the corner of the car" test to see how long it takes to rebound and settle.

Yes, I've done this. Doesn't look good! It is just too bad I am limited to the type of struts I can go with...

What tires do you have on your car?
