Installing my lift and I could use some help.

I spent a few hours working on the front today, broke a set of cheap ass spring compressors from Harbor Freight, did a bunch of cursing, walked a mile to Advance Auto to take advantage of their loan a tool program, etc, etc...

Anyway, I have the driver's side done and I'm almost done with the passenger side. However I have run into a problem. Is there a way to keep the upper ball joint from spinning when putting the crown nut back on?

In other words....HELP the idiot.

You're not an idiot until you've banged on a seized rotor for near 2 hours before figuring out the little hole has threads and is used to push seized rotors off the hub... took 3 minutes. I part of me died that day but I was reborn.

I wish I had the answer but I wanted to let you know you're not an idiot. You're learning. Just as I did with the rotor. Take your time. Be patient. And Google everything.

I put on new uca's so can't help on the stock ones but I would think someone will be able to help soon.

I did a google image search for "ass spring" and I got a bunch of hot girls in bikinis on Spring Break.

That was pretty nice.


Now ya know.
