Default Suspension question!

Hey,

I need to order the front sturt for my uncles 2006 GS300. I called the dealer and they said i needed the number of the strut so i got the left side which is 48520-30210, thinking that the other side would just correspond with the left side. i was wrong. lol. my uncle is out of town so i can get a look at his car. can anyone help me out by getting the number off the front right side for me? could you also check to see if the number off the front left side is the same? THANKS ALOT in advance

call our vendor, the dealer could easily look this up on their parts catalog system, i can't believe they asked you for parts number

or go here: http://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...?siteid=214915

you can most likely find your parts

The factory GS shocks are made by KYB for Toyota. So if anything, if you're not looking to pay for the dealer price, you can look up KYB GR2's for aftermarket replacement shocks.
