Damn...didn't tighten his wheels on?

Can't see why else so many would break at once.

 

everyone alright?

 

maybe they were all installed with maximum ugga duggas

 

Is that on a 100 series?

 

Wheels were on tight. The lugs all snapped. I wonder if too much torque or stress from the initial installation caused the studs to develop hairline cracks?

 

I would think they were all installed loosely; bouncing around that way with all that weight would easily make them break.

Too many can make sense too though...impact wrench at its max and send it.

 

Yes. It has AHC. I could drive a conventional suspension on 3 shocks to some destination. I don't know how the system would maintain pressure with one shock out.

 

I saw it happen here in the local group which is why I asked. But damn that sucks.

Hopefully it doesn't eat into their time at Moab!

 

Were the lugs original? Maybe it was just metal fatigue over time.

 

It can go either way. when they're cranked super tight the stud stretches and gets brittle. Too loose and the studs are bearing subjected to more force

 

You've got an LT kit? Thought you were running mid travel, that's badass.

 

So where are they at anyway? Whole lot of nothing between here and there, and also Colorado.

 

I didn’t know there was a LT kit for the torsion bars up front, that’s sweet tho.

Oh yea. I added an extra inch of droop. I've got 24.75 inches at full droop.

 

Ah ok. I like that town, should be big enough to have what they need. Good pizza place downtown if they’re hungry.

 

Original rear lugs.

 

Remember the name? I'll pass that along.

 

How could I not
