Re: Ball joint nut won't tighten

After you make sure the threads are OK, I just use a block of wood to pound the ball joint's taper into the hole. That usually holds it pretty firm for you.

If you do all of this and your ball joint is still too loose to hold on, its definitely time for a new ball joint, especially since its already apart.
