1990LS400,
You are a deep well of information, and I see you regularly admonish people to search the forum so as not to waste your time. This reply to a long dormant thread is the product of significant searching.
I just bought a LS400, and I'm thinking about tightening up the ride. In reviewing the forum, I need to clarify some terms.
Strut rod bushings are what some here call "cushions?" This is the part that has to be pressed in and out of a long tube with a large circle on the end? These pieces are somewhat difficult to find.
Strut mount bushings are a different part containing a flange with three studs and a long rubber piece? These pieces get sold on Ebay.
Strut mounts are yet again a different part, also containing three studs and are commonly available on sites such as RockAuto?
Struts are obviously struts.
If I want to change the struts, what parts do I really need to change?
Thanks.
