Hi guys,
I'm new, wife had a RX350 and it made a good impression on me for reliability so I sold my TT and picked up a RC.
Has anyone replaced a front strut on a RC350 Fsport AWD and if so is my only option OEM? I have call around to part suppliers and did some searching online but all listing is for the RWD version not the AWD. I plan to replace the front strut and at the same time pick up some lowering springs but my only option seems to go with the OEM strut for $450 can. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Brian

I replaced all my struts at 68k miles Brian because I ordered new struts and new springs .. I’d be happy to sell you a used one with no issues whatsoever. Lemme know ..
Hi, Thanks for the offer. I now understand why the high cost of the strut as it' adjustable. The car is now sitting on RSR down spring looking good with 20mm spacers on the back and 15mm on the front with the factory rear spoiler on the back.
Replacing the front strut got rid of the noise coming from the front that sounded like somthing was loose or worn.
Will need to take a few pictures now that things are looking good.
