+1 what imhighlander said. I think I tried putting a short Torx bit on the shaft and counter holding it with a small crescent wrench. Then estimate the torque using an open end wrench. Otherwise, put a wood block on the jack and load the ball joint then wrench it. Be careful not to hit the backing plate. Any tweak of that will result in the rotor scraping it. Ask me how I know.
