Either replace the lower control arm with a new one which already has the new ball joint in it, or the easier and far less expensive way just go to the auto part store, ask for a lower ball joint for your car. They are about $25 apiece. Press out the old and press in the new one. Be careful, the holes in the control arm may be a hair larger than they should be, and the ball joint will not be pressed in as tight as it should be. Geo
