So i got a wild hair today and decided to get the ranchero out on the road. Had a buddy follow me and I am sure glad i did. Went a few miles at speed when i was almost back to the house when the front passenger wheel went nuts, the brakes went out and my buddy was wiggin out blowin his horn. The new wheels i put on about a month ago are damaged. 4 out of fve lugs were stripped out and i was on one lug. BIG THANKS go out to Jimmy, green85's DAD for helping me get one more lug back on and a tow home. Thank goodness it was not at 50 miles per hour like i was doing just moments before it all went down.... ranchero is gonna be down for a while

That sucks. I hate to hear that for ya. I had that happen to me one time on a Honda Civic I had. It happened when I was on a bridge and when I finally crossed the bridge I pulled over and I had one lug left. It sure will scare the crap out of ya.
