My front right ball joint is obnoxiously loud when turning now. Is there a zert? fitting or grease fitting to add grease to it. The cover dust boot has a huge hole in it and before i would just do a quick spray of wd40 but thats not working anymore lol. So is there a way to add grease to the ball joint directly?

Nope change it

Just get a new one. Try to get some with zerk fittings I know they carry them at most autoparts stores

is it an easy quick fix? like under 2 hours?

Its not hard but not the fastest either. You'll need a ball joint press toget it outta there and installed. You'll need to pull the tie rod end ( disconnect) and the roll bar link and possibly the lower strut mount (make sure the lower A arm is supported) Lower the arm down with a jack and press the ball joint out. Press new one in and reverse. This is just off the top of my head here...someone else may have another insight.

Replace it. Replacing it is going to be a lot cheaper than the alternative when it lets go. Also wd40 will make it wear faster, as it will break down the grease. Tried to explain bad ball joints to my brother, but he would not listen and kept driving it. Needless to say his car was totaled and so was the brand new one he hit.
