Tech tip - ball joint fitting

Post by steveO » Tue Mar 19, 2019 2:16 pm

Hi,

I see a lot of builders having trouble pulling the tapers of ball joints into place with the nyloc nuts (me included) . Find an ordinary nut with the same thread and the tapers pull together much easier. Just change out the nut for the nyloc when in place. You only need one ordinary nut.
Hope helps, much simpler than trying to clamp the joints.
