Bought a dealer maintained '05 RX with 120K from the dealership. It now has 222K and I haven't had to replace any belts. Strange that you've had that issue. However, I'm now needing to replace all the struts, so glad to see your video!

[@briancurnutt1304]

Also, my struts are original and just recently went bad, so I'm pretty impressed with Toyota quality.

Thanks! You've helped me fix my 1965 Evinrude 6 and now my daughter's 2005 RX330!

Now ya can go struttin instead of bouncing. I might be wrong but I would bet at least one outboard been in the back of it . 👍 I use to just buy just shocks and then compress spring off of the old until had one blow up cause had it on a table and it fell off. Now I just buy the assembly .. Nice job on showing how too install . As always Sir thanks for the ride along and Keep’em coming

[@Michaelsbackyardmarina]

It wasn't until I had to do the struts on this one that I discovered they offer full assemblies, I too have had spring compressors fly off and thankfully did not get hurt. Thanks for watching

[@DIYVariety]

Went pretty well bud

[@Michaelsbackyardmarina]

Much smoother than I thought it would. Thanks for watching

[@craymation5130]

Nice video man, do you know the torque specs for the struts? I don't have an impact wrench

[@philliptaylor5981]

Did you go OEM or aftermarket?

[@QuangNguyen-fy5bh]

[@farringtonkramer2514]

[@Michaelsbackyardmarina]
