To add on ball joint cost question, I spent another $200 on 2) stub axle unit bearing vacuum seals, two axle housing tube dust seals, and one unit bearing "O" ring. While I was geared up I decided to put a Spartan locker in since they were on sale at almost 1/2 price. No need to pull the ring carrier, it can be done in the axle.I Paid $331.48 for the locker.
You can do the job yourself if you have a press, as I do. If you find a shop with a press you should be charged one hour as it takes about 20-30 minutes each knuckle. Then this allows you to upgrade other stuff while your in there. Hope the pricing I list helps out.
