Re: Frankentruck
Well, either a turtle or an armadillo tried to take out my emergency brake cable. After the front tire hit it, it must have popped up and slammed into the cable. That pulled the cable out of the backing plate enough to tighten up the shoes on that side and drag a bit on the rest of the 8 miles home.
Got the cable back into place and all is well. I'm glad it wasn't a broken spring inside the drum!
Also, the factory jack has come in handy the past two weeks.
