Default Can i buy lower ball joints w/o heving to buy complete control arms?

Recently purchased a 92 sc300 and it needs stuff obviously. Everywhere i look for ball joints and bushings says that i need to buy the complete control arms but that is expensive and my control arms are just fine....so where can i buy just the bushings or a urethane bushing kit and some lower ball joints? Also would love to know what other suspension parts usually wear out on my car and need replacing. Thank you

They are right, you have to buy the whole lower control arm.

This is probably going to be your best and cheapest option

I don't believe anyone sells lower control arm ball joints separate from the arms. They're made to not be removable. There have been a few people who tried to find a way, but from what I've found through searching, nobody has.
