Yes, in general, the replacement will be similar, the only thing may be slightly different is the design features of your particular model of car. More detailed information can be found in the technical documentation for repairing your car.
Excellent! However you will find a car with 100,000 miles, the bolts on the drop links are seized up and will not turn at all causing the bit to round off if you apply excess pressure. Just make sure you have a spare drop link and grinder at hand, along with a breaker bar and a long tube. If your doing this on the ground, may god save your soul :)

Is the process exactly the same changing the shock absorber on the front passenger side too?

Hey just wanted to know if it is necessary to do an wheel alignment after replacing the front shock absorber. Thank you
Thank you for your feedback. When you replace the shock absorber, no camber/alignment is required. Best regards, Autodoc.

Is it necessary to replace the two shock absorbers together, even if the other is in good condition? Knowing that the car has traveled 100,000 miles
Shock absorbers are recommended to be replaced in pairs and not individually.

Do you sell Toyota genuine parts or replacements only? Thanks.
