Ball joints

Anyone know a place to source control arm ball joints? They all seem to be encased in incredibly fragile boots (which look to be irreplaceable), or an alternative to that boot.

Thanks, guys. I'm definitely going to go with a boot, since there doesn't seem to be any play in my ball joint, and new ones are at least $40.

Anyone ever done these? Or rebuilt a ball joint? I'm having problems re-sealing mine (opened up a bad spare on accident when trying to extract it from a control arm).
