Need another mechanic tip: lower ball joint studs turning with nuts?
The two 15/16 nuts holding the lower ball joint to the spindle are the subject of my current problem.
While these are torqued pretty heavily (110 ft/lb I believe) they’re significantly more difficult to remove when the stud turns right along with the nut.
There’s no obvious way (to me) to stabilize the stud...but I’m hoping that there is a solution that I’m just not aware of.
Is there a trick? Any suggestions are welcome.
