reviving this because i sold the car in question but now my other vx has the same problem.

so i went to the parts store, asked about the upper right front ball joint, the guy pulled out the ball joint sans control arm, it was $45. i asked if any come installed on the arm and he said he'd have to order it in and they were $90, so i took the control arm-less joint and decided i'd try that first.

for those that have replaced the ball joint but not the control arm, is it still necessary to remove the control arm in order to remove and install the ball joints?
