Hello everyone,
I am installing new springs and shocks in my '97 GT. I am putting in new ball joints as well because the old one were all clapped out when I got in there and took a look around. I am putting in Perfect Circle ball joints which are OEM replacements. My question is: has anyone had any problem tightening down the nut to hold the spindle to the ball joint? If so, what did you do to fix it? It will only go down so far and then it will start spinning.
Thanks in advance for any response.
Dustin
