I am still trying to figure out what exsactly happend. I went to pull out of our driveway to go get some grillin steaks, and BANG CRASH! I get out nothing on the ground go to back into the drive and THUD! wheel hits fender top! ACK!
So the wedge pin nut is just spinning and the ball joint post is out of its slot!! I just replaced this ball joint and NEW pin et al. Here is my question: Is the wedge pin for a 1970 four lug different from a pin for a later model? I know the joints are different and now looking at them the side cut in the post is WAY different! V shaped on the late and round on the early... I need a martini! |
