I figured it will only be a matter of time after installing my ohlins coilovers my ball joints will give up so I thought I might have a bit of a look around for a new set.
Found these on ebay. $75us with free international shipping!

carpartsdiscount.com i just got uppers lowers and a full set of wheel bearings from them delivered for under 500 and everything fitted perfectly they charge through the nose for shiping but thier prices are cheap so it sortof evens out
what sort of castor are people getting with these replacement items ???
ball joints have nothing to do with setting castor.
I have the offset SuperPro strut bar bushes and castor is set to 8deg 2min left and 7deg 17min right.
I bought the ball joints from ebay the $90.00 ones about 18 months ago and they failed badly after only 8,000 Ks. The ball joint separated and damaged the guard. I did buy another set until i could source original Toyota ones. A Toyota dealer quoted me about $249 each but Castle Hill Toyota today quoted $110.00 each. I would go that way for sure. The Ebay ones are crap.
