LSPaul Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Depending on the mileage on your LS, and your willingness to have the air suspension malfunction lights permanently lit (and degree of annoyance because of this), it might be easier to find a used air strut and swap it out (it's a pretty easy job). Otherwise, see if Strutmasters or Arnott could re-man your existing strut. I've gone both ways for the two struts that have failed on my LS: One of the rear airbags failed; that got replaced w/ a reman strut, and on one of the fronts, the shock part failed; that one got replaced with a low-ish mile used part (found via car-part.com). Good luck- Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
