Ball joint
 
Hi !

I want to powdercoat my front control arm in the same time I need to change the ball joint. So I order new Moog ball joint and just try to fit them on it ... by I have a loose even if i install the c clamp that give MOOF to secure the ball joint.

Any suggestion to be sure the ball joint will not move and the best way to do it ...

Thanks for your help

replacement ball joint are made for the replacement arm not really oem arm despite many will try. Some can put few soldering point to hold it there but if you do it, don't say i suggest it....I heard some also hammer the arm to reduce the hole size but.....
(IMO this is the solution for a winter beater more than a speed, you better replace the whole arm and get new bushings included because even if it may seem ok, the bushing support the same abuse...Wheel hop came partially from those bushings...
