    Stock:(...for now
    Is that the lower ball joint you had machined?. I cant find a replacement for mine. This picture is the only one that ive seen that looks like my ball joint. I need to find a replacement ball joint and im having trouble finding one on the Internet. Ive searched things like" 2wd 96 tacoma lower ball joint" and cant find anything. This picture is the only one ive seen that is the same ball joint as mine. All the other parts are different.
