2010 Toyota Tacoma, V6 automatic transmission TRD sport four-wheel-drive. Whenever I turn to severely and hit a small bump or incline I hear a metal popping sound or creaking.
I originally thought it was my lower ball joint and CV axle but now upon a closer look, it appears that my tire rods and steering rack are in need of replacement.
The first image is my left side that is pouring grease out and the second one is the damage from the right side where the bushing is completely severed. I know that the outer and inner tire rods need to be replaced.
My question is, how long do I have left to drive on it? And does it look like the steering rack really needs to be replaced? Thank you!
