Upper ball joints-What's the difference? 120-130

I do have the whole front (and rear) suspension from a '72 1800 including the steering box with the collapsible column. So, I do have the upper control arms with the newer upper ball joint setup, and I do need to replace the upper and lower bushings (I have a complete upper and lower poly set sitting in my work shop).

I was planning on rebuilding the front end (bushings/ball joints/tie rods), upgrading my front brakes (just installed a dual circuit master cylinder with the front brakes on one circuit and the other on the brake, and I do have all the brake lines from the 1800 also for the true dual circuit setup)and steering column in steps, but I don't want to duplicate efforts if I don't have to or take the car off the road for a couple of months to do everything at once.

I really don't think I can do all this in steps. I think I need to bite the bullet and do everything at once.
