You need to look at it to see, it could be either way. The original maybe riveted it in which case you would need the bolt in.

That is the type my 95 Tahoe had on it, just a typical tapered stud with a threaded end and a split nut on the end.

You need the press in style. To do the job properly you must have a ball joint press
