Re: new ball joint
That looks about right.
The castle nut should thread on and line up with the hole in the balljoint. It will look different with the rubber boot on.

Re: new ball joint
What does the UPPER balljoint say?
73-87? 71-72 and 73-87 use the same lower balljoint. But they use a different upper balljoint. There is more PROFIT using the cheaper 73-87 balljoints.

Re: new ball joint
when I called them last week and told them I had the wrong numbers on them,they told me the numbers didn't mean anything because they are all the same just drill different, B.S. they will get no more money from me. Mine are CP4S4 which says 73-87 on their web site

Re: new ball joint
The upper is definitely a 71-72 only balljoint.
If they fit,... it's a 71-72 drop spindle. Your Moog balljoints must have been 63-70 uppers. They are smaller in diameter. Balljoints have to match the spindle you are using.
