you guys remember my buddy matt the leadfoot with the bronco well he just got on the freeway at dunaway and got a few mile ahead of me and i found him like this..... his rear wheelbearing heated up and melted the axle shaft causing the wheel the come off at like 60mph.... everyone was a little shook up but no one got hurt the wheel ended up the right side bank so no one got hit by it...... could have been much worse... anyways heres pics

yep same side the shock broke on he's getting a new axle and salvaging what parts he can and will have it rolling probably by the next weekend.... we need to do some kind of sacrifice for his rig so we can get rid of his bad juju
