Thats a good idea. Wont the nut stop the knuckle from rotating smoothly |

Do you mean the steering ball joint or the top screw the knuckle pivots on/camber link attaches to. Only reason I ask is the only part I have ever had to replace on an Xray T2/T3 is the knuckle due to the thread pulling after a big impact |

I've only had them come loose when the steering block had stripped threads. |
