Re: Ball joint help.
Seeing as how you have stripped the top of the inside nut. I would personally pull it apart and replace now while you know that it can move before it gets rusted in place. You do not have to "pickle fork" it to remove. Loosen the bottom nut a few threads and leave it it connected, then lightly tap the top of the ball joint to break the taper. At that point, you should be able to unscrew the inside cone.
AND, do not worry about the 'fish scale' pull being a little different side to side. When you put the tires on and the weight of the vehicle it will change some and be ok
