    Need help getting some correct OEM Part #s. If you know or could help I would appreciate greatly. Trying to redo most front end suspension parts that I can. I have researched but online part numbers all over the place.

    And whatever else I should be doing. Already have new front coil step up.

    A lot of people like this one, I haven't used McGeorge but I think they all use the same basic system and as long as you enter your Vin on checkout parts are guaranteed to fit, or at least the system will warn you.

    https://toyotaparts.mcgeorgetoyota.com

    If for some reason you don't want to order from Toyota (some Asian etc. branded parts are much cheaper, obviously Toyota is charging you to put it in a Toyota box) at least you know you have the correct part number.

    For what you listed, most people here are going to suggest OEM anyhow.

    Depending on your mileage and condition I would consider rebooting your CV's also. IMO if the boots are not broken you don't really need to clean out all of the old grease on the CV part which is a really messy job. Otherwise its easy. There's a kit for it but the inside clamp is a unusual type so you either have to buy a special tool or go with an alternate clamp - I think you can find the details on a search here.

    Are you going to replace the rack bushings with urethane? I did that shortly after buying my truck and it was a big difference in steering control, in fact my 20+ year old Tacoma steers almost as good (straight and no wander at all) as a newer car which is saying a lot. I had to pull my rack recently and did get new bushings but the 20 year old urethanes were still good.

    Good website for part numbers - www.partsouq.com

    just type in your VIN and it will give you the Toyota diagrams with part numbers for your vehicle. A lot of things vary based on year even within one generation so its always good to reference based on VIN.

    I'd check the outer tie rods for play to see if they need to be replaced, and I'd clean the screen in the power steering reservoir while the system is drained. Maybe the power steering lines if you live in the rust belt. My truck was originally from PA and the P/S lines rusted through after about 15 years.
