that last sentence doesnt make sense.
anyway, the pillowball mounts are there to give you a more direct feel with the suspension. as in, its a more harsh ride. they are usually used in sporty cars that want more feedback.
if the teins dont have the pillowball, they most likely use some rubber bushings instead and that is great since you want a nice and plush ride in a lexus. overtime though, the bushings will wear down and will need a replacement.
otherwise, thats the only difference
