[s-cars] Ball joint

[James Murray (QB/EMC)]

I got the complete control arm at "Adirondack Auto Brokers" www.germanautoparts.com and that comes with all new bushings for $89 !!! Great service.

I was in a bind, so I couldn't do it myself and got fleeced at a local garage, 3 hours to change both sides :-( I found that hard to believe as it's only 3 bolts each side, that's 1/2hr per bolt... seemed excesssive to me, maybe I'm wrong.

/JM.

P.S. you might also want to try: Timothy LeClair [foreignauto99 at hotmail.com], he's quoted me great prices in the past, but I don't know how much he can get for the control arm. 

P.P.S. Check the dealer part cost first...

Anyone know off hand how much it would cost to replace a ball joint 
(Parts and labor at the stealer)?  Is it something I could do myself or 
do I need to take it to the stealer?  By that I mean do I need 
specialized tools to do it other than the normal garage tools (sockets 
and screwdrivers).

Thanks,

JR
