Re: Magic Ball Joints from CPP

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.......I guess maybe you can add another member to your problem!

I bought drop spindles this spring or summer...and finally got them in a few months ago. I thought it was wierd when the upper ball joint threads came so far into the spindle that....I had to use a washer so that the castle nut could actually contact the cotter pin in a way that it would lock the castle nut. Here's the deal tho. I bought not only drop spindles from CPP, I also bought lower ball joints that I installed into my lower control arms...and...CPP's '71-'72 tubular upper control arms. These control arms come with the upper ball joints already installed!
