Gs430 guys with bc coilovers?
Were they labeled gs300 on the shocks?
I'm just curious because I just got my bc coils (second time...first they sent me sc430 ones. Grr.)
And these are labeled on the box and each strut 98-05 gs300. Now, to my understanding, the gs430 has a different setup. Are these optimal for a 2001 gs430?
Also, I noticed that there is a linkage which seems to "read" suspension travel? Does this stay connected even when dropping pretty significantly?
Thanks bros!

I felt I needed to explain this because it makes no sense to me even lol.
The linkage is on the car already, near the knucle and appears to read the suspension travel (Im assuming under braking) I was just curious if it would set off a code when you slam the gs bodies?
Im excited to get these put on, it'll be my first major thing done to the car I've had for over a year now... Pumped!

This the the auto leveling for the headlights. You have this on every corner. Leave it plugged in or you will get a light on the dash (it's a little headlight). If it were me, I would leave it hooked up. It will correct the lights for the level of the car. If you'd like a reference, it's outlined in the front and back in this photo. Congrats on the BCs!

Yeah, I got an '05 lexus gs430 and have the 12k/10k set up and have them tucking on 19s for a few months now. They ride excellent and smooth (handles much better) and have been toggling w/ the dampening every week or 2 (currently have the front set at 28 and rear 24 - I enjoy them stiffer (just my preference).
As the guys said above, they're all interchangeable, but as far as linkage, I didn't have any issues especially as low as I have them currently.
