Re: Thinking about a lotto ticket

Oh man, I tell you what. Yeah, that didn't happen in a week or two. The caliper would keep the rotor and wheel from exiting the vehicle. Still is scary to have one do that.
I had a heart racing moment one time with my old truck. Going to work before day light, 25 miles to work. Pitch dark and 60 or so mph when all of a sudden I heard a loud pop and then a huge shower of sparks filled my windshield and was all I could see as a car passed going the other way right through the sparks. I lifted off the gas and coasted to the shoulder. The upper ball joint had snapped and the wheel folded inward and the steel wheel was grinding on the upper control arm. Quite an eye opener for sure.
