under the sink where your sink is at there will be 2 studs that come down with nuts on them, there are 2 big washers that prevent the nuts going all the way up on the threaded bolt. Tighten the 2 nuts up and that should solve your problem.


Answer:

This can be done easier with what is called a basin wrench. Check at a hardware or tool supply store.

How do you connect water lines to a kitchen faucet when the line coming out of the faucet is copper and the nut is stripped?

I have never seen a faucet that has a nut on the line coming out of it. Usually it is a male connection and the nut is on the supply line between the faucet and the house supply. Anyway, if the line coming out of the faucet is messed up, you could probably cut it and use a compression fitting to go between the faucet and the supply line to the house line.

If your referring to having loose steering, then you need to tighten the adjustment set screw on the steering box under the hood. Don't tighten this to much, or it will lock up the gears. Typically a loose box needs to be replaced, in very few cases will tightening the set screw actually help.
