Re: Spring Swap Thread - 1963 K15

My first speed bump was the bent driver's side knuckle that wouldn't hold the upper ball joint. I purchased a used one on evil bay, cleaned, painted it an pressed in all of the ball joints. I installed the knuckles using the 30# torque to bottom joint, 50# on the preload sleeve on top, 100# on top joint castle nut followed by 70# on the lower joint to finish.
