The FMC Ball joint (TRW-S-25-BJ-4002-A-11) is actually the LOWER Ball Joint from a 1957-60 Full Size Cadillac Part #363 0971
Available from:
1.) Coopers Vintage Auto, PO Box 10906 Burbank CA 91510 Telephone (818) 972-2642
Owner- Bob Cooper. Tell him you need 4 each lower ball joints for a 60 Cadillac.
He was in the process of moving to a different location, but the phone # should be good.
In November of 2009 I bought four new greaseable FMC ball joints from Coopers for $84 ea. ($336 total + $9.52 shipping).

If you do install new ball joints that are greaseable, you may have to drill about a half inch hole in the LOWER A-arm to let the grease fitting stick down thru the arm. A longer Zirk fitting can also be used on the lower ball joint.
Other pricing - Receipts from RVS left in a FMC that got a new owner;
Ball joint – $145 each
Tie rod end w/zerk – $80 each
Brake wheel cylinder – $64 each
Receipts for these items purchased from RVS are dated in the mid 1990s.
