Ball Joints

[Saudi Sy]

What is it going to cost me to replace my ball joints? Is there a good aftermarket part I should use? Thanks.

why not just do the whole front end, its alot cheaper, the ball joints usually go for about 40 a piece.

One of the guys here hooked me up with Moogs for about $30 each. It's not too hard, but it can be a bitch to drill/chisel off the rivets if they're the original joints... I'm just too paranoid to swing a big hammer around with all that cladding around there...

I purchased a couple of bushings sets from Energy Suspension. I got the following:

Rear Leaf Spring Set

Front Control Arm Set

Front Sway Bar Set

Ball joint Boots

I am going to replace the ball joints when I do the front end. I was just wondering if someone knew of a place to get some nice ball joints. Thanks for the help.

Where does Al Dustan get his ball joints? They look like something from a Grainger catlogue. How durable are they all exposed like that? I like that there's no rubber boot to get torn!
