1998 Prerunner Front Susp Overhaul - Parts list

Hello- I just picked up a 98 prerunner with 225k. It appears to be on the original suspension so it's time for a refresh. Does anyone have a parts list for the front end wear items? I need the list of other items to buy (ball joints, bushings, tie rod/ends, sway links, etc). I'm also planning on popping in some 5100's and maybe just doing a 1-2" lift, there's plenty of articles on that but I'm having a hard time finding a order list for everything else to refresh while I have the truck apart. I have a press so I can press in bushings etc. myself. It's also a California truck so zero rust.

I'm new to Asian vehicles (usually work on older euro junk) so I don't know OEM supplier brands... I've read LBJ's from Toyota are a must but outside of that I'd like to save... hoping to keep the whole suspension refresh around $850 in parts.

 

If you want to lift it, you might consider popping in some fresh springs front and rear (especially the rear).

Thats all i've got handy.

 

I went with 555 ball joints the lowers are able to grease I thought the upper would be also but mine were not they are made in Japan some say Toyota original were made by 555

 

Awesome I just read up on the 555's. Where did you order from?

With BMW parts which I'm more familiar with you can get the BMW branded parts for 2-3x the cost, or an OEM supplier like say Meyle where it's the same part and you can see the BMW roundel logo ground off the casting for a fraction of the cost... I just don't know the oem Asian suppliers.

 

Thanks. I might keep the stock springs and upgrade the rear later if I need more hauling capacity.

 

Doing the same, and this list is not complete. It is for a 2003 3.4 M/T ExtraCab so the part numbers are probably incorrect, but it should get you started.I'm planning to go all OEM, and it doesn't yet include rack bushings. I've only got three vendors so far but should give you a general idea.

 

I went with 5100s, toytec coils and rear OME leafts. Truck drove good and loved it. Make sure you check them angles on the driveline if you lift it.
