How do you stop the ball joints and tie rod ends from turning while trying to tighten the nuts?

Hit the ball joint down so it is firmly seated then tighten up the nut. If the thread is slightly damaged then the tie rod may turn, in this case hold the end of the bolt with some vice grips to stop it turning and continue to tighten the nut. When the nut gets tight you will no longer need the vice grips, tighten up the nut and insert the split pin.
