HELP. Pressing Ball Joints Back In (Pictures added)

When I press the ball joints back in on my tie rods, control arms arms, and everything else is there an audible pop? I am using the loan a tool press/clamp contraption from Autozone. How much should I torque the clamp down on the ball joint to press it in? I did a couple ball joints, and they fell out later when I was working on another, so obviously I didn't torque those enough. Any help would be appreciated!

the upper ball joints thread in!!!!!!!!!!!!! they do not press in. if your pressing them in you ruined your control arms.
