Rack and pinion/ball joints
Hello all! What a great way to start off the new year. Some bum tried to steal my catalytic converter so when i stopped him and crawled under to see the damage i noticed that my lower ball joints were unbolted a little bit and coming out. After further inspection I noticed the sway bar links were broken and the rack and pinion seemed to be loose.
So my question is what is a good website for oem parts that wont break the wallet. lastly Should I just purchase oem links or just some rockauto ones. Thanks ahead! Russ

So here is a picture of the ball joint in question I have been in the field and I have not had a chance to look at the 4runner but does this look like it needs to be replaced or can i just tighten the castle nut down?
i just received my tax return and I plan on buying a toytech lift and whatever else I need to repair my front suspension. Thanks ahead Russell
