Is that including labor and everything. I have to do the same thing pretty soon. Do you hear like a squeaking noise coming from underneath the car when accelerating when going like 15-20 mph.

Dealer list price on those OE front ball joints should be about $77 each....so that leaves about $300 in labor. Kind of pricey on labor, but then, I'm not sure how long it takes to do that job. BTW, I'm assuming this is for a 1999 GS300.
