    Take of wheel and... $#!t
    « on: May 15, 2010 - 08:38:15 PM »
    Wile driving back to my appt on my Lunch break from school I heard a clunking coming from the front end. Thought I would use that time to take a look see real quick by taking the tire off and seeing whats up. Lug nuts off, Jack car up, Start to pull wheel off... Crash, Started  :swear:. then I took some Pictures before I messed with anything else. So Now I have to fix two things. (three including the spindle that needs replacing.  :-[ )

    I almost didn't. But Perfect attendance is a big deal at this place and it would have sucked to have lost it

    As bad as it is you could have had the tire off and been inside of the wheel well when it came down . I hate those dam little jacks giving a choice I use a floor, or a bottle jack .  :banghead:
