Re: [Chevelle-list] Spindle

It does not go all the way down, the shaft is tapered. Tork it to 40 lbs and put the cotter pin in.   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of langus Sent: Tuesday, October 10, 2006 5:53 PM To: Chevelle Chat Forum Subject: [Chevelle-list] Spindle   I was just trying to replace my front coil springs but ran into a snag when I couldnt get the new lower ball joint stud to slide all the way through the hole in the spindle.  I recall having to use a ball joint seperator to get them apart the first time.  Is there a trick to getting it all the way down on the stud so I can get the castle nut seated enough to get the pin back in?  Thanks for the help     Ryan
