Sounds like it's not tight enough. Best thing is to get a very large pry bar and put down pressure on the joint so it doesn't move when you tighten it. Hitting it with a BFG, will only "press fit" is slightly, but when you start to tighten it up, it'll move again. You need constant downward force on the joint as you tighten the bolt. I had the same problem when I installed my Teraflex, I finally switched to synergy

did you drill the knuckle a little too big?

i used the 13th/16th drill bit they called for.

It's pretty common practice in the bronco world to drill a hole in the middle of the nut just big enough for a cotter pin to go in. Then you would be locked in for sure.

I'd do that but theres not enough threading to tie into

take the nut to ace hardware and get a castle nut in the same thread. Than drill your hole and install the castle nut
