So that's what that noise was...
#1
You solid axle people probably have no idea what this is even a picture of but:



Coulda been bad. This kinda happened (well the ball joint flat out broke) on my old truck. It was only while pulling out of a parking lot, but it forced the tire to a stop up in the wheel well, damaging the fender, and sparks flew everywhere. I thought the tire had come of. Drug a nice line in the street with my lower arm.

Went ahead a LockTighted them all down.

Wow... :shock:

hmm thats the side J tightened right?

Of course :)

Guess it's a common prob. Some people get longer bolts and nut or even double nut the other side.

Next time you might want some extra muscle to get those tightened enough. You know where I live :lol:
