well i just got done swapping a motor in my integra and now im at the part where i put the axles

there is a balljoint with a bolt on the top where the hub assemly connects too and another at the bottom where it connects to the control arm

both of the bolts are stripped and i cant get the castle nut on...is there a way i can fix that without having to change out the whole assembly?

thanks

 

look into a tap and die kit. they might have one for that size bolt and pitch. also for future reference, if u didnt know already, u only have to take the lower control arm ball joint out and swing the brake assembly out the way

 

u can get a new lower ball joint at autozone for 30 bucks and rent there ball joint removal/installation kit.

 

alrite thanks guys...yea i know you only need to take off the bottom i dont know why i took off the top

does anyone know the size and pitch to them both?

 

did you whack them with a hammer while trying to remove them? we all learned that lesson the hard way the first time too

 

check here for the size it may be listed somewhere

if I had to guess I think 11 x 1.25...maybe even 12x1.25
