68Datsun510 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 You broke a wheel bearing? You didnt hear the huge amount of noise that usually precedes that? Quote Link to comment
freetheoranges Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 I heard it for quite a while, probably a good mile before I pulled over. It was smoking. Smoking hot. Sadly, when I broke down I lost out on caravanning. Quote Link to comment

DottiBlue Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Holy crap. I'm sorry to hear that happened to everyone! Hopefully ill get Dotti ready for the next one and we will all have FUN.

DottiBlue Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Sky Blu, I've totally seen your truck before. I took a picture of it headed up the Marinwood hill! Quote Link to comment
DottiBlue Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Triple. That is one of my absolute favorite stretches of road. I know it like the back of my hand. I know it can get wet and slippery really easy in some of those turns, especially with as foggy as it had been. Once again I'm glad your ok and hope to see the car back on the road soon!!
