Stabilizer bar link ball joint

[5VZ-FE]

I noticed this while installing my Bilstien's.

The other side is in better condition, the ball joint on the bottom is still intact. Do I have to replace the whole assembly with part #48830-35020, or is there maybe a part number for just the ball joint? I'm gonna have to do the upper bushings too... (#48817-30020 for future reference)

Replace the whole link, pretty common. After market links are cheaper and do just fine if you don't want to go the pricey oem route. Rock auto has a good selection. if you have a lift then you might need extended links from the 2nd gen. Sway bar end links compared or mstud sway bar links.
