During the mid/late 1990 Toyota trucks, there were defected lower ball joints. They had slotted nuts. The problem was ... the seal grease leaked out over time. And then one day ....

1: (these photos occured in an up graded mountain road at 35 mph about 2 minutes when I was coming down the road.)

2: (These photos taken with my little cell phone).

3: (The truck had 165,000 miles on it).

4: (Toyota STILL has a recall on those trucks ... free charge.)



This liquid is brake fluid. Notice how dry and rusty the ball is.

Great pics! Not too often you are in the right place at the right time to take one of those.
