I'm not following the question. Is your question about the CV axle or about the ball joint? The easiest thing about hondas is that the CV axles are gravy to install. If your question is related to the CV axle, take a rubber hammer and pound the CV axle in or install the nut on backward to make the end flush then hold the axle level and pound at it(providing the transmission is for the D16z6 and the the splines are lined up properly). For the ball joint, which ball joint did you loosen up, the upper or the lower? I usually loosen the lower and take out the strut through bolt (with is a 17mm nut and bolt) and let it drop down that way. Please be more specific please, or provide pretty pictures.
