The install went smooth, but the bolts on the top of the ball joint were smaller than the holes, I tightened them to spec and will get it aligned tommorow. Is this OK??? Anyone else done this on a 4x4.?

You need to drill out the holes on the MOOG's to 3/8" and use 3/8 grade 8 bolts locking washers and locking nut. what you got with the MOOG's are 5/16 and the ground out rivet holes are 3/8



Never late for a Tee time or wheelin with my buddies! Always ready for both!!!
