Bro this is so damn easy thanks for this video gonna save me a grand in labor 👏 FYI for anyone doing this: WATCH YOUR BRAKE LINE be careful dont rip it
There are a couple ways to do that. Put a jack under the strut assembly. Be careful but you probably don't need much movement. You could also loosen the upper assembly at the top of the wheel well by loosening the nut and tapping on it to have the pieces separate. You can tighten it back up once it's all together including having the wheel on and the weight of the car. Good luck!

I have a 2014 Lexus Is 250 base model rwd. Where can I buy front struts OEM? I was told not to buy cheap Oreilly struts 😩
I bought my online but they are after market I believe it was 1Auto so far so good for a very good price
Why take off the strut mount... Just take off the nut at the bottom and push down on the wheel assembly then you don't have to move outter tie rod
Have you actually done this? It does seem like that would be easier but is there room to get the assembly out?
How are the struts holding up? Thinking of getting the same ones
So far so good

I have a AWD 2010 lexus is250 is the shocks/struts the same all AWD lexus
I’m pretty sure they are the same
Thanks for the video...my AWD lexus strut bolts threads are rusty from top side is it possible to change them? Or I need to change the full set?
I’m pretty sure you can change them. At least try

Hola quisiera saber que tan buenos son esos amortiguadores trq???? Ya mi lexus is250 necesita unos
La verdad si me salieron muy buenos el carro ya lleva buen rato con ellos hasta horita to bien
Muchas gracias comprare unos porq los demas amortiguadores que e visto y no son emsamblados estan carisimos gracis enserio
Would the process be any different for the rwd
It should be the same procedure.
I cannot get the bottom bolt to line up again. Been at it for over an hour. Is there anything you can do besides using pry bar?

Sorry to hear that. It hasn’t happened to me
Maybe you drive terribly. Because mine didn’t break and I’ve had them for a long time
