Q: How to remove the front lower ball joint on Toyota Camry?
A: The process of removing the front lower ball joint starts with taking off the front wheel and front axle hub nut. Move to a different step and separate the front speed sensor while disconnecting the front disc brake caliper assembly. First remove the front disc piece and afterward disconnect the tie rod end sub-assembly and separate the front suspension lower No. 1 arm. Separate the front axle assembly then take off the front wheel No. 1 bearing dust deflector followed by the front axle hub hole snap ring before removing the front axle hub. Continue by discarding the front disc brake dust cover together with the front axle hub bearing. Fitting the steering knuckle securely into a vise with aluminum plates enables removal of the cotter pin and nut which allows Special Service Tool: 09628-62011 to extract the front lower ball joint without affecting the ball joint dust cover or steering knuckle.
Q: How to service and repair the upper ball joint on Toyota 4Runner?
A: The first step is to remove the steering knuckle with its axle hub followed by upper ball joint disassembly through wire and boot removal and snap ring extraction using an expander tool. Finish the operation with Special Service Tool: 09950-40011 (several tool options included) and deep socket wrench to separate the ball joint and inspect its rotator condition before securing the ball joint stud with a torque wrench to the suggested specifications. The ball joint inspection requires flipping the ball joint stud five times in alternating directions before nut application through the use of a torque wrench to accomplish steady nut rotation at 2-4 second intervals during which the fifth reading should fall within 0.7 - 4.4 Nm (7 - 45 kgf-cm, 6 - 39 inch lbs.). The installation of a new ball joint requires Special Service Tool: 09309-37010 with a socket wrench and press to install the joint followed by using a snap ring expander with new snap ring insertion before boot installation that uses new wire secured with provided grease before reinstallation of steering knuckle with axle hub.
Q: How to service and repair the upper ball joint on Toyota Tacoma?
A: The service and repair of upper ball joints requires removal of the steering knuckle with axle hub from models RZN191L-TRPDKAB, RZN196L-CRPDKAB, PZN196L-PRPDKAB, VZN195L-CRPDKAB, and VZN195L-PRPDKAB. The ball joint upper nut installation requires flipping the ball joint stud for five rotations followed by a torque wrench operation at 2 to 4 second intervals until the fifth turn to measure the torque value which should fall within the range of 0.7-4.4 Nm (7 - 45 kgf-cm, 6 - 39 inch lbs.). Placement of the upper ball joint requires wireless boot removal followed by snap ring expulsion with a ring expander tool before using Special Service Tool: 09950-40011 in conjunction with supporting tools starting from deep socket wrench to finish the operation. The installation process of the new upper ball joint requires Special Service Tool: 09309-37010 with a socket wrench followed by snap ring installation using a snap ring expander and lastly securing the new boot with wire using the supplied grease from the kit. Cut off the process with axle hub installation of the steering knuckle.
