Just finished tightening up the nut and two bolts and nuts on my lower ball joints again, does anyone know if there was possibly a different taper between the auto and gmc knuckles. I'm asking because I installed the spare knuckles that came with my gmc when I bought it. It was first the right and once I got it tightened down the second time its been ok now the left loosened up. I got the new balljoints from Applied a few years ago so they should not be the problem. Anyone else have this problem. Oh, yes once I got it all tightened back up I lost about half my torque steer and it drove like it's suppose to. Thanks.
