#142 of 147 Avalon 2008 Suspension by carlupi Jun 23, 2009 (8:20 am)
Replying to: 55396 (Aug 21, 2008 12:51 pm) What are the differences in the suspensions of the Avalon XL and Touring models? Is it just the struts (firmer in the Touring) or are the springs, sway bars, and bushings also different?
#143 of 147 Avalon 2000 ride height by par_pa Aug 12, 2009 (7:22 pm)
My 2000 Avy was among the firsts produced of the new generation and had short front springs. I noticed recently that front end seems lower that before. I want to check ride height, but couldn't find any specification nor proper way to measure standard curb ride height for the 2000 Avalon. As anyone information regarding those measurements. I have read somewhere that ride height may be measure from center of the wheel to lower lip of fender. Mine reads 14 3/8 inches.

Replying to: 55396 (Aug 12, 2009 9:10 pm) Thanks Jerry. So I was right, suspecting a lower height. It is more noticeable because I fitted 17" wheels from a Avalon 2005, and the front end bottoms out more often than before, even though I installed Tokico struts. So I guess I am out for a pair of new front coil springs! PA Replies to this message: 55396 (Aug 13, 2009 6:25 pm)

Replying to: par_pa (Aug 13, 2009 3:33 pm) Tire diameter should be the same whether 15, 16, or 17". You make up the difference in the tire sidewall.

I have a 99 XLS Platinum edition. How do I remove the back seat so I can get to the rear struts? Thanks.
