1. I think they were about $55 or so each. Very happy with them, no
problems at all. Go with the complete LCA, not just ball joints. If the
ball joints are shot, it's a good bet the LCA bushings are as well. And as
long as you're doing them, put new end link kits and bushings on the sway
bar. They're cheap and will also help the handling and ride.
The other thing I would recommend is that you find a reputable front-end
shop and have them do a thorough check on all your front-end parts. That's
how I found my Pitman arm was worn (I didn't know how to check that). Once
you have a good list of what to replace, do it all at once.
