I do not know if this is your problem but the ball joints must be torqued in sequence.
It is ball joint manufacturer specific and must be done in sequentially in steps upper/lower.
Per the Ford manuals, for my 2000 4x4, it goes like this.
1st- Bottom Joint: 35 lb/ft
2nd-Top Joint: 69 lb/ft
3rd and final- Bottom Joint: 150 lb/ft
This sequence is also correct for Moogs. Different ball joint manufacturer's may or may not have a specs different than this.
