Help keep the rear of your Lexus supported and controlled with the Focus Auto Parts suspension strut, part number 1345480L. This rear left strut and coil spring unit is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications: the 1998-2005 Lexus GS300, 1998-2000 Lexus GS400 and 2001-2005 Lexus GS430.
The assembly pairs the strut and the coil spring in one unit. The coil spring helps carry the vehicle's weight at that corner. The strut damps spring and body motion as the wheel travels over bumps.
Signs this part may need replacing: excessive bouncing after bumps, a rear corner that sits low, fluid leaking from the strut body, knocking over rough pavement, or uneven tire wear. These symptoms can have other causes, so inspect the suspension before replacing parts.
This listing covers the rear left position only. Replacing both rear sides together is recommended for balanced handling. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and whether they may be reused. Have the wheel alignment checked after installation.
