Is that just for parts? Cause if thats with labor you could save some dough and do it yourself.

yeah dude do the labor yourself and save mad cash. i paid for mine $86 and another 20 to have them pressed out of the steering knuckle. the dealer would have charged me somewhere around 900 for 2 freakin' balljoints
