Message After lunch I had some idiot in a white explorer switch lanes in front of me without waring, jammed on the brakes, heard a loud "click-pop" when I stopped(coming up to a light), got moving again to hear the clickpop again, tapped the brakes, happened again, now I'm going, "shit ball joint is bad" pulled over to check things(i was also thinking that maybe I had a loose wheel or something, possible even a caliper or pad) well I couldn't find anything at the side of the road. I needed to get to school, so I went on in, with the car making the same niose everytime I touch the brakes. Got to school parked ran in, made it to class(which sucked by the way), came back out got out the little nissan jack, loosed the lugnuts, jacked it up, pulled off the wheel, and said to myself "oh FUCK!!!!!!"

on the rear sub frame one of the arms that connects to the spindle then to the rear sub frame broke off, just sheared right off, left a hole about 1 1/4 inch by 3inches long. This is wear alot of stress gets transferred during braking, I guess just after time it got metal fatigued and died on me.

I am going to try and wield it, first though I think I need a stick wielder, I dont think my shitty wire feed wielder will work.

PISS!h
