here and so pulls out the ball ... Guys do not be lazy and do not regret 300 rubles. once every 3 months, call in for a diagnosis, shake your cars! - Toyota Hilux Surf, 3.0L, 1998

More recently I was driving home from the city, and before reaching 2 km. front end collapses, crunch, squeal ... I stop and there is no wheel ... it lies under the frame: ((((I look under the arch and there are 2 ball fingers sticking out and they look at me like ... "x ... did you hatch? the moron got there :)))" No a knock, not a crunch before that was not heard at all ... the suspension worked out all the pits quietly, that even thought about such thoughts did not arise ... I ordered the upper and lower ball on the existential, at the same time the steering tip and the lower left ball, I will change how they come ... :))) Thank God everything turned out to be a slight fright, troubles besides ball-related ones, I didn’t make a big deal, the wheel fell so well under the frame that even the brake pipes didn’t tear off ...
GUYS GO TO DIAGNOSTICS AT LEAST ONCE IN 3 MONTHS and SHAKE YOUR BASKETS! do not regret 300 from RUSSIAN RUBLES! TROUBLES CAN BE LARGE AMOUNT BY INNOVATION!

I do not believe that the ball did not make any sounds and behaved super quietly all the way before dying.
This does not happen ...

Who does not believe there? :) maybe on Mercedes and bryaka something, I could not hear vashpeee! even with the windows open, even with the closed ones! yes, I was told that it is not possible to determine visually and by ear ... it is necessary to use an editing tool, and in my case, climb with a crowbar and watch the backlash ...

What an ambush car, however ... It can lose wheels without warning, does not even grunt even once. Wow.
I just don't believe it anyway :)))

a crowbar is used to check the backlash on all machines. Only when the backlash from the scrap is the ball is sentenced, but in fact it can live even more. A normal spare part will puff, creak, but not fall off for a long time.
And if, like you - without warning - a kick and there is no wheel, this is not normal, sorry.

You are completely right, I also didn’t clap, and when I took off the old ball, like pencils in a glass, I only thought this on Terrano.

so that's why I was surprised that nothing foreshadowed trouble ... that's why I give advice to check! maybe, of course, I had them restored or something else, I don't know ...

what can I grunt do not understand? when a finger rubs on a fluoroplastic clip through grease or what? hardly ... You
can argue endlessly! but what is abnormal - I agree! I have never had such fear before!

It is true! Every oil change I completely shake up the suspension, see what is going on in the bridges, how the gearbox and the engine feel ... In general, scheduled maintenance in full ...
