balljoint question?

[bigjangin]

When I was using a pickle fork to seperate some of the suspension components to take out my axles, I messed up my balljoints. Well, I'm not sure. Does the ball joint just have a protective rubber boot on the outside of it? I tore the hell out of that, and there is a lot of grease. What can I do to fix this? Can I just replace the boot, or do I have to get new balljoints or what? Sorry for the newbie questions, I know a thing or two about dsm's but I dont understand suspensions very well at all. Thanks

NAPA should have boots. So long as the joints aren't floppy, you should be okay.

ok good, the car hasnt even been off of the jackstands since I tore the boots so they should be ok. Thanks!
