Default Ball joints as in......control arm ball joints?
Well, unless you know exactly which joints need replacing...you'll need to swap the two lower control arms on each side (can't just replace the ball joints). Check out ECS Tuning for prices (dealer will be even more)....as far as labor goes, I'm not real sure what the going rate is on work like that. Couple hours maybe? Good luck.
