between 4.99 and 9.99.... top brand verses economy brand

Those prices must be for the bushing.

Best prices I have found for good quality parts is www.rockauto.com

BTW you might not be able to just get bushing but have to get the whole cross shaft kit.

are we talking ball joints or cross shaft/bushings?
Your title says one, but the post says the other.

I got mine from O'Reilly's, but for some of them they had to go to their books instead of the computer to find.

Usually if they are available they can be ordered and received in a day or so.

I try to buy as much as I can from local parts stores because the price is lower and there is no shipping.

LMC's catalong is a great resource because of all the drawings and I can tell what is interchangeable, but normally if need to order parts I try to go with site venders.

We beat Rock Auto all the time on prices but they are a good company and ship super fast
