    a-arm installation question

    I picked up a set of your arms and I'm to the point where I'm putting the spindle back on to the ball joints. I can't get the ball joint nuts to tighten, the bolt keeps spinning. Is there a spot on the boot I should be putting a wrench to stop it from spinning? I just don't want to rip a boot while putting these on. Thanks

    you have to put pressure on the spindle so it gets enough friction to "bite" the ball joint. I just used a hammer on mine and tapped the spindle while turning the nut. Might take two people but one you get it the first time the rest is not a problem. If you still can't get it let me know and I'll call you to help you out.
