Anyone got any brilliant ideas on how to keep my stud joints from spinning so I can tighten up my castle nuts on the tie rods and a arms without using a pickle fork??

Ideas for spinning joints

My first thoughts are to watch some Wiz Khalifa videos :)

But seriously, use power or air.
And air ratchet or a socket on a drill.
I use my battery impact gun.
The key is to spin the nut faster than the ball can. I also pry sideways on the ball to jamb it some
 
A great idea is to make sure that the threads are in good condition, the nuts will not be tight to turn then...
 
woahhh fb must be dead today. The leak down king is posting non stop here. Hold on lemme google that for you.

Lmao wiz Khalifa! So my bolts aren't in the best shape which didn't help. I ended up just hitch pinning them for now so I could at least give it a test right cuz I need to get my jetting set now
