Hey i was wondering if any of you guys new how to replace the ball joints. I was wondering if any of you had experience doing this. A shop gave me a quote or $550 and i found the parts for around $60 so I want to do this one on my own. Thanks for the help

Buy a ball joint press at harbor freight for $50. The ball joints have a retaining clip on the top side that needs to be removed before you press out the joint. It's a lot of work but a lot cheaper than paying a shop $500 to do the job. Pick up a repair manual for tips.

Also most autoparts stores will rent the ball joint press if you don't want to buy one.
