Daves69Coupe 10 Report post Posted May 5, 2010 i got my front suspension back in over the weekend but I encountered a problem with the driver side ball joint. In spins when im trying to tighten the castle nut back down. Does this mean I need a new ball joint or am I using the wrong castle nut to tighten it back down with.

Angel 24 Report post Posted May 5, 2010 The ball joint is supposed to spin, but not while you are tightening the nut. Did the nut bottom out before being nice and tight? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
