Ball joint removal

Okay good glad to know everything is good! Happy to be done!

And are you talking about the bolts that attach the spindle to the lower ball joint and upper ball joint? Because I never actually took out the torsion bars or anything out of the LCA. I left everything in place, and when I put it back together I bolted the spindle to the lower ball joint, and got a floor jack under the LCA and jacked it up until I could get a few threads into the upper ball joint. I then grabbed a clamp and pulled it together, tightened the castle nut so there was no space and then torqued it.

Probably not what most people would do but I made it work! LOL

If you only did the ball joints and the tie rod ends the other post will not apply in your situation.
