    Hopefully the damage is limited. When we jacked it back up I felt the rotor where it slid, and it was still rounded. I still think im going to replace brakes on both sides and new hub on the left. My dad thinks the lugs may have been incorrect for the studs, but idk. I'll check that out later.

    That happened to my 78 lifted GMC all four tires going down the highway with my daughter in the truck............its a good thing it was lifted.

    Come to find out my truck was not the only one that had that problem........somebody that got locked up or a family member got into our parking lot and loosened up a bunch of our (police officers) lug nuts on our POV's

    LOL.............yeah my front right wnet screaming down the road in front of me and I was like WTF is that??? then I realized it was MY tire.........thank god I had a solid front axle.................was able to slow down almost to a stop before my front end did a nose dive into the asphalt.........I checked the other three tires and the studs were smoked from teh wobbling that happened when I slowed down.

    Yeh man, the only damage thats visible so far is the fender. Im fearing a new hub, rotor and alignment too. But ohh well. I guess this is kinda common for aluminum rims...

    Glad the only thing that was damaged was the truck even though that sucks too.
