Default 4Kin ball joint snapped !!!!!!!!!!!

the bloody ball joint snapped on me transit van !!!

I SH1T myself !!!

Sliding down the road with my van scraping along the floor, it was the first time its happened to me !!!






The ball joint arm fell into my tyre and burst it as well !!!

i'd just done 3 junctions on the M6 and come off at J18, i was on the A533 (bostock road) joing to my second job of the day (i fit sky tv). Thank fuk it didn't go on the m6, thank fuk i was going in a strait line !!!

Its not all bad, i have had to rent a 55 plate transit, which is nice, but £101.25 a week is bloody expensive !!!

All in all, an exciting day!

At least im ok.

It wasn't squeeking, the steering was slowley getting stiffer. i thought it was a tyre going down or something. I did plan to have a look at it, but i hadn't got time as usuall.
