installed my homemade camber plates

so everything went well, got the wheel off, easy bolt on.






jk.

puddle + Bald tires = no go. yeah, so i was taking a turn and my tires decide to let go, i hit the brakes and do a 180*. narrowly miss a fire hydrant (maybe 4-6 inches?). hopped curb. result? bent rim (so bad it rubs against the caliper), and possibly broken strut/tie bar


this car is a money pit.

Man, that sucks, real bad.
Good thing you didnt slam into anyone else, and have more problems.
It would have also sucked to hit the hydrant.

This winter loves wrecks
A buddy of mine flipped his 96 F150

He was driving on a curve, the back end got loose, and he slid into a ditch and out the other side of the ditch and in a field is where it ended up landing on its passsenger side..

He is ok, and so is the truck, the truck is still in very good shape, except for a couple of minor dents, thats a tough truck!
