Do i need to buy all the expensive knuckle to change lower ball joint ???!!!!!!

[MONTREALC]

My dealer is telling me that my lower ball joint need replacement and the only way to do it is to change the entire knuckle.

I found only one thread here that says I can order Moog part number K7469.

As anyone done it ? Toughts ?

The entire knuckle is super expensive like 750$ canadian.

Thanks !

as of right now you have to order the knuckle to get the ball joint from the dealer, not sure about aftermarket though.

I was told the same thing. Be entirely sure that it IS the LBJ before you give them any money. Get a second opinion. They said it was my LBJ and I would have to have the whole knuckle swapped out, but when I went in for the installation, it turned out that it was my tie rods again and the tech that made them order an $800 part and F***ed up my brake job was dismissed from his position.
Never hurts to get a second opinion.
