lower arms showed up today, hopefully I can get them installed after work. So i looked out to see while driving and my you can see my tires wobble. Going to get an alignment asap but wondering if maybe my ball joints are starting to fail. the other day we were checking them and they seemed fine but i dont know anymore. Wobble still goes away while going faster tho. also the arms have holes for zerks...but currently are plugged....is that normal?

Usually one is open, if they are both plugged remove the plug on the one you want and zerk the other one
 
I mean what's the easiest way to get them tight? I have a large adjustable but it hits the mounts so I can't really get them tight at all

Also both arms have plugs
 
What happened to the lock nut that EVO was making for the control arms. I can't find it on there web sight. I saw it on there utube vid.

EVO 4G WAYALIFE.
 
I guess I'll have to pull them to try and get them tighter, lower mount gets in the way of tightening the nut
 
I'll take some tomorrow morning when I get up, will have a friend so I'll have the extra help just incase to help torque the arms if needed, took a little while by myself, if I knew the arms were perfect I'd just spot weld the nuts on

I wouldn't do that incase you decide to go taller in the future..
 
I just bought a 1/1/2 wrench at freight harbor I think that's the size and tighten them on the jeep.

Are those rock krawler arms? I tighten mine in the rig. I have a friend hold the joint centered with a pry bar while tighten.
