I have this video saved on my youtube playlist, in the instance i buy a LS430, at the end of this year or early next year. In the UK, some of them are converted to LPG fuel so can run on petrol and Gas which reduces the cost of fuel, since petrol costs $7.2 per gallon here. I am quite excited but it will be difficult to find one since these cars are so rare. In the uk at the moment only 4 cars are available of which only 1 is LPG
Interesting. LPG was a somewhat popular conversion in the states back in the 90's/00's. Not so much anymore
Interesting 🤔, ive been interested in a 04-06 LS430 in the UK, but all LS430s are Ultra Luxury so all come with air suspension and i have been put off by the potential cost of failure of air suspension but now i am reconsidering it....i might consider it now ...
Great video, thank you! Do the Japanese struts work with all of the factory Lexus air suspension software features?
Yes, they are identical to what you buy at any lexus dealership in the US
Great thank you! @@LILEVO

If I may kindly ask: from which Japanese vendor/supplier did you purchase your air shocks? I need to replace all four on my 2005 UL. I prefer OEM, but the US dealers are too expensive for me. Great video! I appreciate your tips regarding torquing the upper control arms. Thank you!

@@LILEVOThank you! Look forward to your next video.
@@sanjivpatel4016 I will have a video on swapping the rear struts, all 4 height sensors, and adjusting the height correctly with Techstream in the next video 1-2 months from now.
I just bought a 2001 with 100k. I put new Oem rotors and pads front and back but I’m still feeling a lil vibration around 45 mph and around 60 mph. I’m thinking it’s the upper control arms because the previous owner had aftermarket 20 inch rims on it that were really heavy. I took them off and put the stocks back on. What do you think, replace upper control arms?
I'd start with the front lower control arm bushing.
@@LILEVO Will do. I appreciate the feedback. Thank you
Im about to place an order from Impex Japan, how fast is the shipping? Also on there website theres a disclaimer that shipping cost is not included in the price. I'm assuming after order is made they charge you later for shipping? Do they charge alot for shipping?
Maybe a week or so. They do charge extra for shipping. I have a couple of suppliers that charge less than impex and have free shipping. Send me an email and I can provide. www.lilevo.com click the contact link
@@LILEVO sounds good 👍 I just replied to that link
Does anyone know if these are better than getting Arnott's Replacement?
Based on reviews like these I would never use any aftermarket suspension component especially when you can get original parts at almost the same price: www.amazon.com/Arnott-AS2894-Strut-Assembly/dp/B0763BHNDJ
How do you get the airline back in the strut?

How did those struts from Japan work out, do you still recommend them !!!
Same as what the dealers here sell you. Car drives like new
Impex just informed me both 2001 rears (left, right) are now discontinued ending in 50110. Can you confirm that the 50120 rears will work on the 2001 with no issue? Thanks!
Yes they work fine. I install them in my part 2 video
@@LILEVOGreat thank you! 🤔
@@LILEVO I have a 2001 UL with 120k miles. No suspension parts or bushings have ever been replaced, and no issue is currently present. “While I am in there” replacing air struts, other than upper control arms, do you recommend replacing lower control arm, ball joint or other components too given the age of car? Thanks!
@@garycedar all that will last until 200k+. I would do only the lower front control arm bushings. You can press new ones in or buy the whole bushing and bracket from Lexus
@@LILEVO That’s great, much appreciated!
What is the name of the Japanese company for new struts !!!
