FRONT SUSPENSION LOWER BALL JOINT

This may have been covered previously but has anyone heard of a recall for or had problems with the front suspension lower ball joint? I have an '02 dbl cab 4x4. I just read about this on Motor Trend.

 

Yeah pretty sure there was a recall, but don't wait until you drop one going down the road , trust me you'll be changing your shorts haha....

 

Oh, & change out both sides if you can..

 

there was a recall at one point for them. If you call your local Toyota service department they can look and see if your truck qualifies by you VIN. My truck did not, so I ended up replacing them both myself.

 

You can also put your vin in here and it will tell you
