Just signed up for this site looking for some help with my suspension on my '97 4x4 4cl Tacoma (75k miles) - this is great!!

My front end has been really loose, especially when I turn. Going over bumps seem dramatically worse than what the bump really is. I jacked up the truck under the lower ball joint (a la Haynes manual) and tried to get some play in the wheel. It seemed to move around the outer tie rod, so I changed both of those. No problems with that swap out, but the looseness remains. Is the next natural progression to replace the ball joints? Is there a write-up (hopefully with pictures) on how to do the ball joints - I've never removed a steering knuckle before, and which one usually goes first, the upper or the lower - am I about due at 75k anyway? Thanks in advance!!
