RIght got a pug 306 balljoint snapped last week so replaced it
but new balljoint on car, turned lefty righty make sure its all ok, BANG! 
the thing decides to come out.. 
works on a nip nut set up which is as tight as it can possibly go..
wrong balljoint perhaps? guy gave me correct one for power steering model so cant think of what it possibly is...
i cannot understand y this thing keeps coming out..
chemical metal next haha
Any ideas?

The nip bolt might not be holding the BB joint in on the groove??

mate foned someone earlier, and its a common problem if the balljoint goes on a pug it fucks the hub at same time 
got another hub coming in the next few days though..
