  1. Hello, I am going to change the front strut mount on my 97' ES 300. I went to Toyota and got the mount, but previously when I bought the kyb mount they had a bearing, but this time I didn't receive a bearing. I asked the dealer and they said it's part of the new design. Does anyone know how to install it? Do I need a bearing because I'm reading Haynes Manual and it shows a bearing between spring upper seat and mount? Thanks
