A new OEM ball joint can be had for under $25. What does a new boot kit cost?

This is true but if you do the proper checks to see if the Ball Joint is OK and you clean it up and regrease; and install a new Boot you are going to get several years of use out of that joint.
If after those several years the Joints have gone bad you can install New Ball Joints.
