I am stuck trying to get the passenger side axle out of the tranny, because the castle nut holding the lower control arm to the ball joint stud is spinning but not coming off. The nut did come down partially before refusing to thread any further back on or off though. Right now the nut covers just about the last couple threads. I would think it should loosen fairly easily with the the LCA pushing down on the nut, but I guess not. Any suggestions before I take a dremel to the nut and risk damaging the threads on the ball joint stud? I suspect the harder threads on the stud are fine and I'd like to avoid having to buy a new ball joint. Lindsay
