I never did find the piece that took off, but the rest of the pieces were still under the axle... Limped her home, and took the bike to work...
My old camaro broke leafs on both side when I "got air" one night in it (isn't highschool great...) I drove it like that for 6 months before I had the money to fix them... Never had a problem with the broken leafs there...
What part of West Virginia?May have seen it at some point in time here.




Did getting air involev RailRoad tracks and excissive speed well it is a cheap way to lower a car
