    Just as title states, I'm looking for a good mechanic to replace the lower ball joints on my truck.
    Does anyone know a reputable mechanic in this area?

    Hey Man, the local Tacoma group here is doing Taco Tuesday tonight at Tijuana Flats in Stuart, FL just about 6 miles south of Port St. Lucie. You should come hang for a bit. We are meeting at 7pm.

    As far as a mechanic goes, I would recommend CTM Customs here in Stuart to get your LBJ's done. They are they only "reputable" 4x4 shop around.

    Ended up getting it taken care of from a local guy.

    Ball joints were fine, both wheel bearings are going.
    Driver's side was on its way out.

    On the bright side, the truck is good to go now!

    Right on seems like the bearings are notorious for going out. Man wish you could make it to are annual meet. You would have a blast.
