Cars at 135k.

Should I get another opinion?

How can you tell if they're going bad??
Here's your second opinion CHANGE THEM BRO NOT EXPENSIVE AT ALL

Guys, if you bring your lex for 5K mile service (oil change), the dealer will check the balljoints every time. So, it's safe that way.
I've jut had 5K mile service yesterday. They did all inspections and said "there is no recommendation this time". So, I guess the old timing belt isn't too bad.
To take advange of the comprehensive inspections, I will have 5K-mile service ... every 3K miles
