Just checked my system and it says the OE Upper Control Arm Part# 0K01134200A inc the Ball Joint but there's no separate Part# for the ball joint itself.

If I click on the upper ball joint all I get is a note "economy part"? Possibly avail aftermarket??

Sorry bro <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Awe. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> I just put my new lower ball joints in spindles today. I've never seen separate uppers. Might be easier,(on mine anyway), to cut old bolts and spacers and junk out, and add the new wishbone balljoint combo together. I thought they came with bushings also. I've seen new on ebay. Good luck. I'm gonna keep my uppers for now. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
