1997 Mitsubishi Galant 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

it appears to have two lower ball joints. one comes form the lower control arm but there is a second ball joint to the left of it. this is on the front passenger side. the second ball joint is gone and the car is wobbling really bad at high and low speeds. the ball joint seems to be connected to a bracket that goes to the from nobody knows what it is or what it is called and i need to replace it any info on it would be great.
