Re: Ball joints spinning so cannot tighten AND castle nut issue

You need enough upward pressure from your jack such that it forces the ball joint taper into the spindle.
Sometimes the spring pressure prevents this, when this happens i try moving my jack further out to the lip of the control arm.
If that doesnt work you have to add more weight to the front end. Have people sit on the truck.
Stack lifting weights on it or sandbags.
