Many part for own cars not available now, but we can find parts at car junkyards and Japan action. Some part compatible from another modern car.
Joint ball may be damage when water penetrate from dust cover and in the course next time this activate rust formation. Rust ball initiate friction spring seat.

My joint ball have same problem. I won’ a repair parts, for that need disassemble node and polish ball. After I won’ a give joint ball to metal turner, he can make new spring seat and assemble node after…

thanks for your input DDmitry, i am currently trying to find a suitable ball joint to fit to the existing Lower Control Arm so that in the future i can replace the ball joints without having to try finding parts that don't seem to exist, again i still ask anyone who can find some replacements for these parts.

Available here, $38 NZD a pop, so like 18 quid. No new lower control arms tho, so rebuilding might be a good option for the lower ball joint.
