My Front Passenger Strut just 'popped' / gave way while coming back home today, as its all low and it won't raise. Preferably, I am after a set of Good Condition (non-leaking) front left & front right struts. I have just posted this on the wanted to buy section, but i was wandering if anyone in SA might know where else i would be able to find some struts (or at least the front passenger strut) quickly? Cheers.

Hey, that's my parts place. Don't go sharing it around Gary. LOL
A safe bet though. They always have some mangled soarers lying around.

I just went down to Wingfield and didnt see any wreckers? Looked it in the pages and said it was 150 South Terrace but couldnt find that number. Its not the wreckers that use to be Nisswreck back in the day is it? Im always down that way and never seen any Toyota wreckers, nice and close to Smooth Garage aswell if its does actually exist where you claim it to be haha

As you come from salisbury past the wetlands going to wingfield take slip road to grand junction rd, just as you get to rail crossing its on your left, you cant miss it.

Razvan, try City Dismantlers as well. They often have Soarer half cuts etc. Once you get some, let us know where and how much, just out of interest.

Thanks for the suggestions. Just Wrecking Toyota's told me they don't have any atm. I have tried them all and none of them have any ai suspension struts in stock. The only place that has a pair is Complete Auto Dismantles (North East Rd) and they wanted $990 for a pair imported from japan (and couldn't even tell me if they were lower km struts, they told me they could be up to 110k km). Now if I am to buy just one strut (private sale) and replace the leaking strut which doesn't raise, would that still be ok? (as I haven't been able to find a pair yet at a more reasonable price) I find $990 a price too high to pay for struts which could start leaking in a matter of months.

Razvan, try this link. He's based in QLD but by the looks he has a passenger side strut.
