Default front upper control arm ball joints removable?

I had an extra set of upper control arms and i had to cut one of the ball joints off to remove them from my brakes, I was wondering if these were removable and if the dealer is the only place to get the part?

No wide response, cause look like you are bubbling. You removed ball jonts from your brakes? What do you mean?

sorry, I was referring to the ball joints on the upper A arms. I stripped the bolt on my extra set and was wondering if these are removable (ball joints) but i called toyota today and they only had a part number for the knuckle, a arm itself, bolt, washers, and nuts.

Nope, one piece.

I`m not aware of any press in type ball joints used by Toyota. Only removable types they use are bolt in types.
