I have an 89 5.0 just put it through inspection and was told it needed a new front lower ball joint. I went to my haynes book it says I have to change the lower control arm that the ball joint cant be changed alone. I called the local auto parts store they sell just the ball joints and tell me that you dont have to change the control arm. So my question who is right can I change the ball joint and if so are they bolted or riveted in? thanks for the help Jerry
