steering knuckle

I was just wondering how hard of a job it was to change the ball joint on the steering knuckle by the wheel. It seems that I have some grease leaking from that joint which I take it means the joint has failed. Let me know if I am wrong or what

thanks

See if it has any movement to it
grab it and try to move it up and down, if none then you will be fine for a while, but with all of the crap on the roads it will work in there and make it get worse faster.
You should be good for a while though
Get Moog parts
I have two in stock in the garage will get you a number after while!
