Great video! I have a 1999 Jeep owned since 2001. A note on anti-seize: I have always anti-seized anything with threads. In turn, when I come back for round 2 and three on major repairs a decade later, I can attest that things always do come apart like butter. No need to bother with impacts. Copper anti-seize is good for high temp applications like exhaust manifolds. The gray/nickel based is good for the rest. I don't use it on interface fits such as between the ball joint and knuckle, though. By default, I don't want a chance of any gaps or movement there. I ensure those are clean and dry prior to assembly.

Thanks for the comment! Yeah I typically just use whichever anti-sieze I happen to have on the shelf. I should probably keep a bottle of each type and be smart about it.

No need to hit the stud, even with the nut on, it can deform. I ruined several before I figured this out. Hit the hole. Hit it hard. Like it owes you money. I had a hard time finding ball joints that fit my son's 99 Grand Cherokee, Five sets of aftermarket joints all had the wrong stud length. I ended up going with Dana Spicer and they fit perfectly. Keep up the good work!!
