How easy is it change a ball joint? Would be easier to change the lower control arm instead? My old ball joint sheared off and the wheel is dangling. Any advice???? Thanks

If the control arm hit the ground, you might want a new control arm anyway, especially if the car was moving when it let go...a complete arm save you the cost and trouble of pressing out the old and pressing in the new. And gaurantees the arm isnt bent!
