    Is it just me or was that website a little hard to use.
    I entered my vin#, and no matter what part I clicked on, it said that part fits my truck.
    The website said the automatic trans ($4400) fits my 5 speed truck. It also said the 2wd ball joints fit also my 4x4.
    They have great prices, just make sure you get the right part #'s before you order.

    @juicedstang999 I literally had the lower left ball joint installed on mine a week ago today! EB has better pricing than Mark Jacobson Toyota, Leith Toyota and Fred Anderson Toyota. :taco:Raleigh-Durham Toyota dealerships SUCK!! They're more concerned with upselling to increase their profit margin, and could give two shits about competitive pricing. :mad: All 3 Toyota dealerships quoted me $311.43 for (2) black exterior door handles and that did not include shipping and taxes. EB shipped the exact same door handles (pictured in my AFTER photo updates) for $180.00 C'mon man!!!!

    And these fit your 99 SR5 Extended cab without issues. I'm looking for a friend that has a 99 EC SR5 also.

    This is the place I do all my ordering from,, look up the part numbers on https://partsouq.com/en/search/vin?vin then input it on their site,,, I've talked to them about their web page being terrible, the parts guy agreed but it's out of their hands, but the counter people are very good and helpful.

    Same.. I usually do my searching first and then put the # into Boch and see how much cheaper it is from what I've found.

    @juicedstang999

    Rich, I contacted McGeorge Toyota, and they sent me an email, stating this

    "The ball joint recall kits are only for certain vehicles that met the criteria (or VIN number listings) when they were originally issued. You would need to contact your local dealer with your VIN for them to verify if the kit is correct or not for your Tacoma."

    Did you have to do this, or did you just order it and install them. Another question, did they come with a new castle nut and cotter pin. Thanks for any info you can provide. I'm just trying to save my neighbor some money.
