I recently replaced the shocks/struts on my 98 Avalon with 165,000 miles. Car failed the "bounce test" when I purchased it from a friend. Job is not too difficult if you have some heavy duty hand tools and a little time. I bought a spring compressor but could not make it work so I finally took the units to my local independent Toyota garage where they had the proper equipment to remove the shocks from the strut assembly and replace the new ones. They charged me $120 for all 4 and it was well worth the money! I also replaced the original brake disc and pads while I had everything disassembled. Even after paying the shop I spent about half what the local garages wanted for the project! I found lots of good and helpful information on the internet. Good Luck!
