^ That's a bit different from the 90105-10406 bolt, which is more of a flange bolt.
Lower ball joint bolts stuck in knuckle
- Thread starter jack.hanks02
- Start date
Now if I can only get past the fear of snapping these rusty bolts i’d replace my LBJ’s since I have a pair as well as new inner/outer TRE’s (all OEM) sitting on my workbench since last summer.....downside of living in the northeast!
The fact the originals were replaced under recall at 60K miles makes me a bit comfortable but now going on 185K.

you have to have enough of the bolt out to get a grab onto it. the good news is if the bolt then turns off it's flush and you are on the drill out and re-tap it path anyways at this point.

Update on this. I put both spindles in a vise and tried every thing I could but the bolts would not budge.
Took spindles to a machine shop where they drilled them all out for $40. Ez pz.

Taken from another thread I posted this on discussing these bolts:
"Looking at the pictures OP posted of his bolts, they are "Class 11T" [the four lower ball joint bolts] based on the markings as per the service manual page 130 (SS-1). On the following page, the standard torque for a Class 11T M10 hexagon flange bolt is 72 ft lbf. 64 ft lbf for a hexagon head bolt of the same class and size. Therefore, torquing them to 59 ft lbf would be completely understandable in my opinion so long as you verify your bolt grade".
This only applies if you are using Toyota fasteners. Check your bolt head markings and compare to the service manual or the above quote.
