I need suggestions since our 2000 Sienna needs front struts. OEM Vs
after market? Dealer Vs local shop? Do the rear shocks while I'm at it?
We bought the van new, it has 130,000 miles and has been perfect in
every way.

Also, anything else in the front end to have looked at while doing the
struts?

Last I heard, RayO mentioned strut replacement by the dealer would be
the way to go as that gets you a lifetime warranty and of course, the
quality and other niceties that you'd expect from OEM parts.
