Our take on the 1997-2003 Toyota Avalon EZ Strut Full Strut Assembly (Right Rear SMLS225)

This is a fully assembled rear right coil-over strut for the 1997-2003 Toyota Avalon. It comes with the strut, coil spring and upper mount already put together, so it bolts in place of the worn factory unit without a spring compressor or special tools. Strutmasters claims it cuts installation from about four hours to under one. It restores factory ride height and is aimed at owners doing a direct stock replacement rather than a performance upgrade. The main trade-off is that it is one corner only, and the maker recommends replacing both rear sides together.

About the 1997-2003 Toyota Avalon EZ Strut Full Strut Assembly (Right Rear SMLS225)

The EZ Strut is a fully assembled coil-over-strut unit that replaces the worn factory right rear loaded strut on 1997-2003 Toyota Avalon models. It combines the strut, coil spring and upper mount in one assembly, so these parts do not need to be swapped over separately.

It is designed to restore the vehicle's factory ride height, ride quality and comfort. It fits and performs like the factory strut.

It installs without modification and needs no special tools. Installation time is on average less than 1 hour, compared with about 4 hours for a conventional strut replacement. Replacing struts in pairs, passenger and driver side together, is recommended.

Questions and answers

What does the assembly include?
The strut, coil spring and upper mount come pre-assembled as one unit. It replaces the complete factory rear right loaded strut.
Do I need a spring compressor to install it?
No. Because the spring is already compressed and mounted, the unit bolts in without a compressor or special tools.
Should I replace both rear struts at once?
Strutmasters recommends replacing shocks or struts in pairs, so the rear left and right match. Mismatched sides can affect handling and ride height.
Will it change the ride height?
It is designed to restore the factory ride height, not raise or lower the car. Expect a stock stance once installed.
Which Avalon models does it fit?
It fits 1997-2003 Toyota Avalon models as a rear right replacement. Check the side and model year before ordering.
Is this a performance upgrade?
No. It is a stock-style replacement meant to bring back the original ride and comfort, not to stiffen or lower the suspension.
