My rear end locked up after towing it with no fluid, I am glad that did not happen to me.

I guess you need more than two lug nuts per wheel, eh?

Does anyone know the story about what actually happened in this clip? The guy goes a few feet before he spits the wheels off, so what has blown up? I'm REALLY hoping that it wasn't just forgetting to tighten the lugs..

Did the wheel studs shear off? Never seen anything like that before. That really "bites"!
