You cannot replace just the ball joint.

Perfect time for an upgrade!

That is the one though Napa has it for $55, and if they don't have it local you can get it shipped to your nearest napa for free, I wouldn't put in a JY one cuz it'll be in roughly the same condition
I bought a cheap pickle fork for $10 and it has more than paid for it self in removing tie rod ends
