[urq] Balljoints for an 83

[n-engelbert at terrans.net]

There was a message about this a few months ago.  The ball joints are
available at, drum roll, Autozone.  There's an outfit in California called
Rare Parts, they either picked up the NOS, or are producing them now.  I
think that one was something like $50, and the other something like $90. 
Autozone part numbers are... 10475 for the drivers side front for $40.99,
and 10778 for the passenger side front for $62.99.  On the early 83's, I
think they're interchangeable front driver to rear passenger and vice
versa.

Good luck!
