I would be willing to buy new boots and bushings too.** A: No other parts are required! It has a new mounting bushing pressed into the bottom and new hardware/bushings to install on the top.

One possibly could be added, if desired. **Q: Will this fit ok in 2012 Sienna xle 8 passengers with no mobility access package ? please answer soon** A: Shock Warehouse says the KYB344480 excel-g gas shocks fit 2012 Toyota Sienna 7 passenger without mobility auto access, they do not say anything about 8 passenger.
