Well the part cost 250usd for saab orginal on the internet, or 140 for scantech. It takes a few hours if it was your first time replacing it your self. I myself would only replace the control arm to get past inspection. I would find an independent saab mechanic and get an estimate. Stay far away from any ford dealer ship or any dealer, you may be a victom. Did the dealer give uoun an estimate? Curious how many miles on your car, you don't hear of many ball joint failures. I once was told this also during inspection in massachusetts,and they wanted 500usd, I inspected it and found the control arm bushing was bad and replaced it myself for 40usd and it then passed. Good luck, till then
