    Nobody really replaces the bushings on these cars. chances are the rest of the bushings along with the ball joint are getting worn out as well. It's probably a good time to replace both lower control arms. Rockauto.com has them for about $150.00 a pair plus shipping...

    then i guess everyone has alot more F'ing money then me. the other bushing has been replaced, and if a ball joint goes bad, oh well. ill tackle that for $25

    $13 for the bushing from a GM dealership. its steel on steel, by the way. no way ill be able to beat it out with a hammer
