"Wife: Honey....what the hell is this in the freezer?"
"Husband: My balljoints?"
"Wife: YOUR WHAT??!!!
You sick minded people, I am talking about balljoints that you use to build a front end of a cobra! See...balljoints are a tricky thing. Often times they are VERY tight when they are screwed into the upper and lower A-Arms. Therefore, you need a little fire...and a little ice. In order to get them in, you need to freeze your balljoints over night and use a torch to heat up the receptacle on the a-arms. One shrinks, the other expands and BLAMO!! You can put them together. Another side benefit is that it makes an incredibly strong attachment between the two parts.
