I guess what I'm more concerned about is that I originally torqued the castle nut to 80 pounds. I didn't realize that was incorrect and completely removed the castle nut and retorqued to 40 lbs. so technically the ball joint was seated in the spindle under 80 pounds of torque I did not remove the ball joint from the spindle even though I removed the castle nut and retorqued it. maybe I'm over analyzing this and its not a big deal I just want to make sure everything is safe up front since this car will be approaching speeds of 140 miles an hour and taking some serious track abuse.
