Some things are just waiting to happen and he was the unlucky one to be driving at the time. Could have been much worse. ------------- CA, WD, C, 3 Bs, 2 Gs, WC, I-400, 914 |

Dave, I would have to say by the looks of things, He was driving through a crowded parking lot, a, tire fell from somewhere, on the hood of the truck, lost control, and the final outcome, A electrical, issue! LOL Could be worst!! Could be buying about 10 cars!

looks like a lower control arm failure , hmm less time working on tractors and some TLC on driving viehicles.. Wait until he takes you to court for giving him a unsafe viehicle to drive. ------------- Faith isn't a jump in the dark. It is a walk in the light. Faith is not guessing; it is knowing something.

I don't think it has a lower control arm, just a straight drive axle. At least he wasn't driving the real Ford.

| Hmm, Dave, did you remember to put the cotter pin back in the spindle keeper nut after you repacked the bearings? Or did Junior work on it last? Are you going to say that he worked on it last? LOL! Hey, at least it was in a parking lot, and not going down the road at full speed. That would have been really bad. I'm sure those scratches will buff right out! LOL! |
