you could just find a piece of thick wall tubing that has an inner diameter the same as the outside diameter of the uniball and press it in. weld a collar to the top to stop it from going all the way through. Weld on your hoops for your control arm and your done.
89 Nissan Pathfinder, 4" trailmaster Suspension lift, 1.5" rear lift coils, Rancho 9000x all round, 3" body lift, sway-away torsion bars, big stereo, rebuilt and transplanted hauss engine and trans. 33x12.50 bfg mud shoes on 15x10 polished aluminum wheels. makin room for 35s
That would also work if you had a Mill to bore out the part to accept the uniball. For DIY fab work they sell pre-milled parts to weld in where you need them.
