Upper left and right are the same. Lower is for a specific side.
There aren't any grease fittings to be found. FYI, I made the rookie mistake of ordering only one because I assumed they came in pairs. I didn't realize it until my old ones were removed, so I had to use one OEM and one AutoZone. During installation, these OEMs appeared to be much more well-made.

I'll start by admitting that I made a mistake. For some reason, I mistookly believed I was purchasing a pair rather than a single item. These had lower ball joints when I purchased them. Then there's the fact that I didn't realize I only had one upper ball joint until I started working on my truck. I was able to install the ball joint fairly easily, but I had to purchase a non-proprietary non-proprietary non-proprietary non-proprietary non-proprietary non- Since I only bought one to begin with, I needed an oem from AutoZone to complete the project. To keep the boot down and the grease in, you'll need to install a wire ring. In this regard, I believe the aftermarket ball joint was more convenient; however, removing the old upper ball joints was a complete nightmare. With an air hammer and a pickle fork attachment, I was able to remove it on one side. It was significantly more difficult on the other side. I was finally able to get it off with the help of a puller. It was not a pleasurable experience. However, the dealer estimated that replacing the UBJ, LBJ, and outer tie rod ends would cost $1500. For around $450, I was able to complete the project. So, in the end, it was worthwhile.
These are genuine Toyota parts imported directly from Japan! br>These replaced a set that had gone 265,000 miles on my 4runner; don't be fooled, the original parts ARE better. For the next 250,000 miles, I'm looking forward to not having to worry about my upper ball joints. Installation was also a breeze because these are genuine OEM parts.
I tried a set of aftermarket upper ball joints from Valuecraft, but they wouldn't press in. As one might expect from OEM parts, these fit perfectly. I should have bought these when I first got the truck, but I was eager to get started. Even though we had to wait in the end, it was nice to have the assurance of genuine Toyota parts up front.
I just replaced OEM upper and lower balljoints with new OEM balljoints that had 255k miles on them. That says a lot about Toyota's commitment to excellence.
3rd generation 4Runners are said to have OEM upper and lower ball joints, according to almost everyone who owns one. For a 2002 Limited, the original set has 230 thousand miles on it. And when I took them out, they didn't have much play left in them.
Quality original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts may be more expensive, but they are well worth the investment. It's easy to set up, and I've had no problems so far.
Excellent item.
Toyota parts are 100% genuine.
