    My Bro & I replaced the passenger side ball joint in my Camburg UCA, put the bolt in so the nut is on the lower side(on both UCA's), greased all the zerks, put the caps on the UCA's, installed the front SuperBumps(yes, the allen wrench provided is too long and needs to be cut), rotated tires, adjusted Icons(again!), and I attempted to patch a tear in my CV Boot.
