Replacing the front struts! - Toyota ist, 1.3 liter, 2002
Hello everyone! Well, finally, the long-awaited spring has come in our city! And without hesitation I decided to replace the front struts, I was looking for them not for long. To begin with, I decided to call our foreign brands shops to find out what for what and whether there are such racks on my car. I already had a goal to buy kayaba racks and that's it! I call one of the stores and say the make of the car, the model year, etc. After ten minutes of waiting they tell me: you have a very rare car and there were very few of them, so there are no Kayab racks on your car, but there is only the original and they cost one piece 5500t.r. I even got ridiculous, we have so many ISTs in the city and they say they were just a little bit produced ... It’s immediately clear that they wanted to make me money. KYB is cheaper! I went online and found in just five minutes the catalog number of Kayab racks for Toyota East, here's the number suddenly someone needs 333368. The next day I went shopping and found them in the very first Toyota store, and for one bought the stabilizer struts, they were also not in good condition! Changed the rack is now generally class! It seems that I was on normal racks and did not go, apparently they were no longer in the best condition! Now I enjoy driving. Unfortunately, there are no pictures of replacing the racks, because I forgot to take a fotik to celebrate!
Price tag: 8 100 ₽The racks of the Tayot small cars, though not killed, but you see, they are not eternal! Question: besides how I visually saw the streaks on the racks, how else did their unusability appear?
First time I hear that Toyota makes racks itself! ))
On conveyor assembly go, as a rule, from Kayaba.
But here the company will choose which supplier!
Behind in general, the racks are completely dead, I don't know where is cheaper and which ones to buy. And the front end will last until spring ...
