I'm pretty sure the lower ball joints the previous owner replaced are oem parts, he used all oem parts. I'll double check to make sure though. And the frame has been sprayed with an undercarriage coating already. I'm going to do more research on that and see what else I can do to prevent rust.

Well a miracle happened and I ended up buying a 1997 4runner from my friends brother. It was from Texas and had a completely clean frame, no rust at all! They maintained it very well and it has 207k miles, and they've replaced the radiator, lower ball joints, springs and shocks, and a few more...
