How to service and repair the ball joint on 2003 Toyota Tacoma?

The ball joint servicing and repair begins with front wheel removal at 110 Nm torque (1,150 kgf-cm or 83 ft. lbs.). First support the lower suspension arm with a jack before you disconnect the tie rod end by relaxing the 2 lower ball joint set bolts through 160 Nm (1,600 kgf-cm, 116 ft. lbs.) without unbolt them. You must next remove the cotter pin and nut while tightening the nut to 72 Nm (730 kgf-cm, 53 ft. lbs.). If the installation process reveals misaligned holes then increase the nut torque to 60 degrees. The tie rod end should be disconnected through the use of Special Service Tool 09610-20012. The first step for lower ball joint removal is to remove the cotter pin and loosen the nut to 110 Nm (1,100 kgf-cm, 80 ft. lbs.) before tightening the nut an additional 60 degrees if needed. The process requires Special Service Tool: 09628-62011 to disconnect the lower ball joint before removing the nut together with the two bolts and the ball joint component. You should test the lower ball joint rotation quality by moving the ball joint stud 5 times before adding the nut while using a torque wrench to apply a continuous 1 turn over 2 - 4 seconds until you measure 0.1 - 3.45 Nm of torque (1 - 35 kgf-cm / 0.8 - 30 inch lbs. on the 5th turn). Replacement follows exactly the opposite sequence of uninstallation steps.
