    Wish I could be more help, but if you at the diagram #12 and #13 are the bushings. From what I've seen (which I didn't) there is no OEM replacement ball joint, but maybe I missed it.
    Anyways, $110 for bushings only is kinda steep. $243 for assembled lca made sense to me (but I don't have a garage to screw around with burning old bushings out).

    Good luck.

    Makes sense.
    My local dealership didn't want to price match, so I bought my replacements (and few more things) from McGeorge. Pretty much lowest prices on most things I've seen

    Just looking around at a couple sites. It appears there is no replacement ball joint for the lower. The upper no problem. You might have no choice but replace the assembly.

    Just curious.. did you end up buying the full assembly LCA? Or did you press out the lower ball joints?

    Full LCA, not much more than the parts itself. I saved my old LCAs to rebuild the next time
