99AWD rx300 has bearings under the strut mount. Saw them myself
Mount replacement went well. Much quieter now. Everything was pretty straightforward, Used 3 strut compressors instead of just 2--felt safer.
Thanks for info!
3 strut compressors? I remember then I was a kid in Russia. My dad's car broke front suspension in the middle of nowhere. And local villagers straitened and rewelded the the whole thing. I remember how they had to weld-on a 30-foot rail to set the front bridge in right position. And I remember how they compressed coil springs set them on the floor and pushed from the top with tractor hydraulics. After that they made attempts to secure springs with steel wires. And I remember a coil flying… Not that impressive for a kid, however I was told to hide somewhere while they do that. It took them ~6 hours for 3 guys to finally fix everything. And we paid only 3 bottles of vodka.
