If they are stock a arms then you need to replace the whole a arm. If they are aftermarket, then contact the company that makes those a arms.

damn that sucks i was kida hopeing i wouldt have to change my a-arm but thanks for your help:mad: :(

You don't "have" to get new a-arms, you can cut the ends off your a-arms (where the ball joint is) and have a sleve made for hole, and get aftermarket ball joints put in there. Just a suggestion, thats what I'm doing (I'm a machinist) so I'm doing it myself.

could i just pop it back together or would it just pop back out when im landing a jump or something cuz that would not be good

I am 99% sure that you can't just put it back together, maybe but, I really doubt it. I'm only basing this off my 400ex.

No your right, all the OEM a arms on sport quads can't have the ball joints replaced.
