    Default quick bit of advice needed for prospective buying of an LS400 > buddy club suspension

    hi all

    anyone know much about buddy club suspension in an LS400

    the car is in great nick and about the only thing i could find fault with was a bit of oil off the bottom of the strut on the front passenger wheel

    it has buddy club coilovers in it and apparently the lower bushing is cracked..

    does this sound legit? why would there be fluid there? im thinking breach in hydraulic piston... any thoughts? or are they gas

    rang japanese import spares and they reckon $70 for lower bushing.. so no big deal there.. just a bit worried if its the strut itself that needs replacing

    seems like a pretty honest guys, said he did overdo the lubing of suspension a bit

    other than that the car is pretty immaculate

    cheers
