I removed 7.5 amp under dash, also the 60 amp which is abit of a pain , lights still on so removed speedo cluster , took off glass and lour black electrical tape over the suspension warning lights . re the ride I did muck about with preload a few times , ride is a little harder but your going from a very expensive air system to coilovers

Hi Chris have you managed to get your dash lights off and if so how

Hi Chris I started by takeing tension off then winding it up by hand till it got tight , then puting the second lock ring up to the first one and then wound the top one up until the the supplied spanner fits between ( about 4mm) then locking the lower one, what height have you set all around the car

No Chris the original drop links do go on to the coilovers mounts

I just undid large centre nut and swapped complete plate over

Aye Chris just swap dampers so long on front

Hi Chris , top plates and lower mounts , also i elongated upper hole in rear mount, also keep the ten kg springs on front, I also put plate washers on top mount bolt locations

Used are 180 upwards depending on condition for rear one , just over a grand knew

That’s great thanks

Yeah would be great if you have them

Thanks herbie

Hi , has anyone dropped the rear diagrams out of an rx300 to replace it Mine has rotted around front runner mount locations and on rear cross brace I've been all over the underside checking floor ,sills and chassis and all are solid before going to expense of replacing diagrams ,can anyone give me any pointers as into the easiest way to do it

Hi does anyone have a measurement from ground to wheel arch or centre of wheel to arch , front and back on low and normal Height setting that they could send me manythanks mike ps does any one no we’re I can get hold of a rear sub frame for a 2004 rx300 mcu35-r

Hi Chris , yeah that’s the ones , and yeah you switch just dampers as you said , the ones with adjustable dampers are identical except for adjuster on top of each damper, to be far once you get these ones set they give a good ride quality, don’t forget you have to elongate the top hole in the rear mounts on coilovers and bring in the top late mounts on the front ones

Chris go on eBay type in coilovers for 92-01 Camry , they are listed at £178

Aye sorry Chris from a company called tuningmall in so live Poland on ebay

Hi Chris item no 353124049365 , manufacturing part number 0841xk , they are for 92-01camry 99-03 Avalon and a few others , you will have to swap dampers front to back , open holes in front turrets slightly , and also elongate rear low mount holes, you can do it in a day. I took as much of the plastic tubing as I could away , removed compressor, still have to take main fuse out all it does is stops light flashing, I also left height sensors on and connected , automatic front head light still adjusts, I would probably go for the ones with damper adjustment on them , if you need any more info feel free

Hi guys well I've been busy and taken bull by the horns ,after a lot of searching I found that there are quite a lot of toyota models that use the same complete struts either front ,back or in both positions as the 2nd gen rx300, so I ordered coilovers for a 1992 ,2001 toyota camry, brand knew, made by maxpeeding rods £180 for all 4 , they arrived from Poland and I stripped off the old air suspension and fitted coilovers in a day,I had to slightly elongate the top mount holes on front upper mount holes ,and all so the upper holes in the rear lower mounts.( Also standard drop links fit no problems) I have left the height sensors connected,but have removed air pump and as much of the piping as I can ,I haven't yet removed air suspension main fuse but I will it just means light flashes on dash, all of the adaptive lighting works still, I adjusted the preload off a bit from factory setting and the fire is as good if not better than on air suspension,it's great on country roads in the bends and smooth on motorways. The only thing I would say is that I may have to swop the dampers only front to back because front slightly low and back slightly high but didn't affect handling. overall the car feels great and very responsive and comfortable on all roads in very happy with results

Lucky you caught that one ,

Hi guys , i ve been busy converting from air to coilovers which I’ll go into on another post but can someone give me a measurement front and rear from ground to wheel arch on normal ride height many thanks

Hi guys , the other day the air compressor got very noisy and kept coming on a lot more than normal, so I switched the Suspension off so today I went to car suspension completely flat so started car up switched suspension back on, nothing no pump but the off light keeps flashing and the height only goes between normal and high but suspension still flat any ideas

Thanks good tip worth ago, oil has been seeping for about a month

Hi guys anyone no where I can get rear drive shaft seas for 2004 rx300 awd

Ok that’s great many thanks

Did you leave sensors connected, I also have read about pulling 7.5 amp to put out warning light and removing either the 60amp Fuse or the airsus relay
