Default front air suspensions

Can anybody tell wether there is a difference between left and right front air struts and what that difference is? I installed a left hand strut on right (passenger) side and the ride feels softer than before. Any idea?
thanks.

Install in correct locations first and make sure correct parts are used and alignment is copacetic.
PS. Amazing pager op! Doron would be proud.

Do they have different product numbers? If not, then it doesn't matter.

Did you adjust the ride height linkage after you changed it? Did you cycle the suspension? High, Sport, Comfort?

Nice! Love that show.
In 1996, Israel’s internal security agency, Shin Bet, managed to trick Yahya Ayyash, a skilled Hamas bombmaker responsible for the killing of dozens of Israelis, into accepting a call from his father on a Motorola Alpha cell phone brought into Gaza by a Palestinian collaborator. Hidden inside the phone was about 50g of explosives — enough to kill anybody holding the phone to their ear. Both instances are now part of Israeli spy legend.

Yes, The hight is ok and suspension cicle works, but now I am driving "normal" posision and not "comfort" because "comfort" became too soft.

Each strut has its own part number and is not interchangeable - https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls-...ir-struts.html
