    Anyone have any recommendations on tightening upper ball joints with these spindle gussets? I can get micro turns with a wrench. I cannot seem to get an impact socket to fit. As always I appreciate the wisdom
    Of this group.

    You probably got it by now. But a 22mm regular socket, or a thin wall socket should be able to get it. I have been able to to use a torque wrench as well. Wheel Off of course.

    hopefully the tire is off? Maybe an impact swivel?
