Torquing the drag link

My drag link is loose on the lower passenger side ever since I messed around on a huge snow bank a few weeks ago. I can grab the bar and rattle it and it clunks at very low speeds going over uneven gravel in my driveway. I got a socket on it this morning but I think the bolt is just turning within the bushings. Can anyone give me advice on how to properly do this with the right tools?

The ball joint is turning while trying to tighten?

If so, is this factory or aftermarket?

If factory, there is a place in the stud to put an allen wrench to hold it while you tighten with a wrench.

Wait, head is muddled, may be a small box end wrench on top of stud and big wrench on nut.

Thanks. I'm at work so I won't get to it until tomorrow morning. I appreciate the help.
