Rear UCA ball joint

Anyone know where I can get a replacement ball joint for my rear passenger side upper control arm? Seems like everywhere I looked it was only for the front.
Any help is appreciated 😊

You have to buy the whole control arm to the best of my knowledge. Nissan doesn't recommend replacing just the ball joint, anyway. The other question will be whether the bolts will come out on their own or if they will need to be cut out, as they tend to get seized to the steel sleeve in the bushing.

That would be tragic seeing as I installed the adjustable bushings in this and just got the alignment close. Might have to take it from the junk yard. It's just the sleeve got pushed up and grease came out and I want to pull the sleeve down and fill er up if possible.
