2008 LS600 Air Suspension
Got a couple of issues with my ride.
1) A have a rattle or rapping sound from my front struts when going over bumps. The driver side is much louder than the passenger side. I know this is associated with the strut mounts. Is this repairable or do I have to replace the struts?
2) Rear suspension bucks when I go over speed bumps. It actually feels like the rear end jumps and there is a loud thump. Any thoughts
So I have been looking at options.
I have found Arnott makes struts for the rear, but not the front. ~$600/strut and made in the USA. https://www.arnottindustries.com/pro...-left-or-right Anyone have any experience with these struts?
Anyone find an aftermarket for the front that they recommend?
Coil over packages are an option. Any suggestions? Ride Differences?

Go with a brand named China remanufactured or just switch to factory coil and spring parts.
I was told my rear has a broken strut mount I want to see how a fix can be jerry rigged.

Can you please confirm you are not some sort of bot? You make no sense and promote China. Club Lexus is waiting for your response.

I asked questions. Read the response again from JD. Arnott is a LC vendor. If they are so bad why does CL have them as a vendor? And no other answers. As for 1400 posts, most bots have lots of posts.

Just to let you know. I actually took your suggestion, and looked at Chinese parts. Tried numerous chinese vendors on ebay Wolf, AirUsFat, etc. All showed struts available. Once purchased, I got refunds b/c they were "out of stock". Which probably means you talked to the chinese vendors to revoke my purchase
! So I went with original parts from the UAE.
