I will call Nate Monday but just thought I would ask here first. Anyone had any issues installing the balljoints into the lower arms? Is it possible the balljoints I have from Nate aren't the right year for the arms? I ordered the control arms for the 73+ but I'll be damned if I can get them to press in. Its almost like the bore is too small. Just a side not I have done thousands of balljoints as a wrench and with my press I have never had this issue. Any input or suggestions would be appreciated.
