Where to buy OEM Lower Ball Joints?!
OK, so I've tried unsuccessfully to get OEM Lower Ball Joints for my '05. All the online places and the couple dealers I called will only sell the complete lower control arm for like $450 each! I've heard this by others on the forum as well, but I've also read about people being able to buy the LBJ's separately! What's the deal?! Anyone know where I can get these?

I'm going to be forced with getting the Moog LBJ's, but I heard they're crap. I've also tried NAPA since I've heard they have good components (pretty happy with the rotors I bought there), but the 1 location I called said they don't show up in their system or something...

If you're not going to provide any help, then please don't post on my thread.

I've tried 2 of my local Toyota dealers (and also 1stToyotaSales.com or something recommended here) and they all told me that I can only buy the complete LCA which includes the LBJ. Other posters have had the same issue, yet there are still some people who claim to have bought new OEM LBJ's...

I tried searching for the answer, but none of the related threads had my answer...

Maybe they aren't offered seperately? I looked on ToyotaPartSales and they don't have it listed either.

ToyotaPartSales.com
