    Truck has been in the shop... over torqued lugs is what I think happened (not sure who is too blame since I had it in a few shops for some last minute work before SEMA).

    Basically, after a 12 hour trip hauling the trailer I got home and unhooked the trailer then grabbed the wife for a date night... she was driving since my back was acting all crazy and just two blocks from our house the wheel shook hard then flew off going around 20mph. Damaged the fender enough to have to be replaced which is what its in the shop for now and has been for the past 2 weeks. Hoping it is finished up by next week.

    This all happened on Sunday. I was leaving to SEMA the next day which of course put a huge cramp in that plan.

    The R/T review will be done when I get the truck back and have a chance to go offroad and air the tires down to test them that way as well.

    Half were sheered off. Because it was only half it makes me thing they were all torqued differently. Some too loose and some too tight. Where it happened I only found two lug nuts in the road. Who knows when the others decided to leave the group that day.

    I'm just thankful it happened at 20mph instead of the 70+ I had been doing prior that day with the trailer attached.

    Weird.
    May I suggest replacing all the front ones with ARP studs. They are longer and a shitload stronger.
