I just got a shop to do my ball joints and I bought the moog ones, you don't need the control arms just the ball joints.

just ball joints...CA bushings should be fine, i would do it myself and save money if you have the tools...never did ball joints on a GM, but did them on my dads little nissian with IFS and was simple, just kinda time consuming.
