I'm in the process of ordering new tie rod ends and ball joints for my N/A 1990 SW20. The front and rear ball joints seem to have the same part number, is this correct?

My mistake, heres a pic front & rear joints

NO!!
The front SW20 ball joint is smaller than the rear.
Front p/n 43330-19025
Rear p/n 43330-39135

BTW, the Camry (FWD) uses the same ball joints on the front as the SW20 uses on the rear.

Yeah from memory they are slightly different.

I'm fairly certain they are the same front & rear.
