Re: Upper ball joints



Parts manual shows them as M6. Used grade 5's on one of my Lincolns
(5,000 lbs), so 8.8's should be cool. Installed Gutentight (somewhat
imprecise measurement imported from Germany -- good n' tight) with
lock nuts. Wheels haven't fallen off yet.

someone recommend the type (grade) and size of bolts to use on the new
ball joints? Also, the torque to tighten them to?
