I think my Moog arms were $80 each and it made a noticable difference in tightness in the front end most likely due to the inner bushings. However, from a DIY perspective I actually think installing balljoints only would be easier than the entire arm if the vehicle has OEM springs.  If you don't have the right spring compressor it's a total PITA, especially if it's your first time.    An OTC 7045B would make it easier, but now you are investing $250-300 into a tool you'll likely use once. OP,  i'd get a quote from a mechanic on replacing both front control arms and compare, i'd also try a different shop.</blockquote>
