Re: cant tight my lower balljoint (super-hatch)
whatu do is put a skinny vice crip on one end,u put it in the whole and u put the bolt on even. u hold the vice grip down and u take an impact gun and shoot it in enough and take the vice grip off and shoot the rest in, works every time for me

got it done what I did was put the wheel on and let it sit in the ground and tight it up with a wrench worked fine
