Help!!! rear leaf "ubolt" snapped
For some reason, the "ubolt" holding the rear passenger side leaf pack to the axle just snapped. Is it safe to drive with only one bolt securing the leaf pack to the axle??? I'm in the middle of no where :s
Thanks in advance! |
what is your definition of nowhere Rocks and Ditches Probably Not Gravel road creep it along Paved road Creep it along If you have a chain or strap to band-aid it do that first
|
I have used a Larger tie down the kind that hold cars and trucks to trailers Not safe but if you really need to move
|
Thanks for the responses guys...it snapped on a paved road in the boonies...longest drive home of my life. 30km/hr for about 35-40k, white knuckled the entire drive. I'm glad the one side of the bolt slid down and was grinding on the pavement, otherwise I may not have figured it out until it was too late........

well.... i've drove our sinngle axle grain truck (97 ford f 800 with a 12valve cummins) fully loaded 33,000 lbs. 55-65mph with a broken U bolt for a few miles, put it this way the broken part of the U-bolt was all rusted (oops) before i noticed!!!
