On the way back from Oranocos place I was driving down the M11 at about 70-80 and went over a bump and there was this huge BANG!!

My imediate reaction was shit somethings fucked. So pulled over and looked over the car... everything seemed fine and car was running ok so got back in and drove off. But something justs didn't seem right with the handling of the car. Thought it might be the new cage stiffening up the shell. So carried on.

It was only untill I got home and started getting stuff out of the back did I notice this....



WHERE THE FUCK HAS THE NUT AND DOUGHNUT GONE!!!

So I dug around inside car and found this under my passenger seat



And these under the drivers.



Thread is fucked on both the suspension and the nut. Fuck knows how that happened

Good ol girl got me home in one peice thou

 

 

theres a first for everything i supose

 

Thats shocking! Never seen that before

 

must of been some bump

 

Thing is, it wasn't! Not much more than any other bump.

I dont even think that that nut that was on there was even ment to be on there, I dont think the threads (whats left of em) dont even match.

 

Can't beleive we were crawling all over the car this afternoon and none of us noticed this

Just glad you got home ok mate

just wind the nut back on! all good.

 

 

Can't nut and bolts thread completely fooked

But atleast yer got home okay as others have said

Waaaaay ahead of ya on that one doing it tomorrow
