If you could I would just sell the Ball joints, I'm sure you could find someone who will take them off your hands.

Doing my heims it only cost me about $60 bucks for everything and it's a lot better than the ball joints.

You don't even have to buy new top arms, just grab some 1" ID tubing cut the existing top A-arms and slide the tubing over them to extend to the proper length.

here are a couple pics of what I had to do.

You can see how I slipped the tubing over the A-arm, and cut off the left over part of the spindle, and the shock mounts I had to fab up. Also I used the same 1x2 tubing to stand my rack n pinion off for better steering geometry.
