Default driver upper control

Whats up my peeps, I just took my 93 gs to the shop to get some dunlops dz 101
shoes and told them to check my ball joint on the driver side.
What i found was what i suspected, my upper ball is shot. They gave me a crazy price of about 800.00 bucks for part and labor which i know is insane even for a lexus.
What i'm trying to say is i now live in atlanta and need some good deals on such.
Please help me on this, much appreciated.

Hey my peep, i got my upper control and bearings replace on drivers side and the car rides like a dream. I haven't felt that ride for a while. I also got them both installed for about 170.00 at Promace Imports in Marrietta. They also did my system, total package and labor under 800 bucks.
Panasonic 8303
spl 680 amp
alphonik p610 woofer
custom made sealed box
and total rewiring. The sound is crystal clear but i will have to get bigger amp to
get full potential out of p610 it has a rms of 600w.
I should have pics soon.
