    well thats not that bad mine is like that too, but you should get it replaced. you dont have to replace it soon it will still be good for a couple more months, if you want you can just keep adding lubricant to it but its best to replace it..

    you dont have to replace the ball joint, just the boot.
    it's normal for these things to wear down. it's just gonna be a pain getting the lower control arm off.
    i suggest soaking it in liquid wrench the night before you replace it. also, get a pickle fork. you'll need it.
