And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
The trailing arm, in the background attached to the shock, disconnected from the hub carrier. When the brake was applied the control arms twisted around axle because the trailing arm was not there to counteract the torque created. Al_in_Ottawa
Yep, he is correct. Good brakes and loss of the lower A arm (or radius arm) will do that nicely. Looks like a cheap off road quad too, light tubing for most parts, they are mostly death traps IMHO.
Too much go from the left side while applying whoa to the right side. THe technical term is TMFIB: That eMmereffr Is Broke. The cure is PFM : Pure eFfin Magic...
Busted frame bracket that heim joint was attached to, shit started spinnin and next thing ya know, dairy queen soft serve style ice cream twist. Never seen it on anything but driveshafts on slicks but here we are. There's no such thing as "idiot proof". The moment you make that claim some asshole shows up with a new and improved idiot. Looks like he limped in on a busted up chassis, this time.
Is that a 10mm socket on that impact driver?
ReplyDeleteThat depends, is this an RC car being worked on by dwarves? I think they'll need more than that no-bounce and tiny pry bar to get that untied.

ReplyDeleteIt's barn art now.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it's going to need a cv joint too.
ReplyDeleteYou sure it's a trailing arm and not a tie rod?
ReplyDeleteA transaxelual?
