Default Was then taking my old car apart....

To salvage the lower arms. Took the front driver side wheel trim off to remove the wheel, to find that 2 of the wheel nuts were rolling around inside the trim!! Both still had parts of the stud inside them, and had evidently sheared off!! Bearing in my i drove it to Southend and back a couple of weeks back and i thought the wheel bearing had gone!! I was absolutely amazed and quite shocked at what i saw! I had reached 80-85mph on the way back so think what could have happened if the wheel had come off then!! Think someones looking over me!!
