All 4 corners take the same part numbers for upper and lower.
I replaced all 8 on my 04 a few years ago.
Thx .... Just made my research for parts really easy any special method to the removal and installation procedures? I know I'm dealing with aluminum and freeze the ball joints and heat the control arm at the ball joint.

That's pretty much it. Take your time and don't rush it. One thing I can't stress ENOUGH....make sure, 110% sure, that you have it lined up straight and true.
You DO NOT want the ball joint going in at an angle !
I used a Hydraulic Press to install mine but I don't see why it wouldn't work.
When I replaced all of my ball joints I purchased a used set of knuckles off of a wreck. Removed the ball joints using a press as pictured above and used a Hyd. Press to install them. I guess the only thing with a Press kit like that is to make sure it's all lined up properly before you use the impact wrench to press the ball joint in.
