Upper Ball joint to Spindle issues
Hey guys, I've been having an issue with my upper ball joint. For some reason, it wants to slip out of the top of the spindle. Thank God it only slips about a quarter out. It's still concerning though. I do have a 3" spindle lift and I might add a 3" coil lift. I want to make sure that this ball joint is seated properly but it's been super stubborn. I tightened it too much and I believe I stripped the bolt which is great. Any ideas? Maybe a new upper control arm that is made for suspension lifts? Any ideas would be really great thanks

Yeah but here's the thing. I had to replace the original pincher bolts with the same pincher bolt just I got it from the dealer. They don't make them exactly the same. The new one I got from the dealer was out of like the cheapest aluminum possible it stripped really easily. Right now I'm using a way stronger bolt. It's just about the same dimensions as the original just the threads are longer. I've gone through 3 of the replacement bolts from the ford dealer and at $10 I'm done using the aluminum ones
