Ball joints...
Ok.. So i've got a stupid question.. How tight are the nuts on the ball joints suppossed to be? Should the spindle rotate on the ball joint or with them?

Re: Ball joints...
Torque specs for C10,
Upper ball joint 70 Lower ball joint 120 The ball joint stud should rotate with the spindle. Make sure you have the correct matching ball joint/spindles so the tapers match (i.e. '62-'70 ball joints with same year spindles, '71-'72 BJ/Spindles or '73-'87 BJ/Spindles).
