yes, would anyone have a procedure or illustration in removing the ball joints in this 1997 pontiac grand prix. if not i was looking it over and one question, do the bolts on control arm have to be loosened up to let control arm come down after you losen up nut on old ball joint?

You'll need an air chisel or a grinder to grind off the rivet caps. Then a large enough drift pin and hammer to drive out the rest of the rivet. The new ball joints will come with bolts and nuts. You don't need to loosen anything on the control arm.
