    Unhappy Can this be fixed?

    Hello eveyone....I was just wondering if this can be fixed by only changing the ball joint or do i have to by a whole new piece (upper arm?) the ball joint is the only piece with damage to it...upper arm seems to be in good condition...thanks.

    well the ball joint is broke right off and that is the only part that is holding the upper arm to the knuckle....and i was wondering if i would be able to just change the ball joint or do i have to change everything else that the ball joint is connected to? and it is my rear passenger wheel that has this problem,

    thanks again.

    I think you can replace it but it's probably easier to just replace the whole arm.

    remember always shop around for the best price i find true value ? or is it auto value? affiliated stores have better prices than advanced discount auto parts stores
