Clint Miracle Saved my Bacon, and other true stories..

Miracle's of Stamford, KY is run by Clint Miracle, and the guy really bailed me out Monday..

Took some family up from Knoxville to hunt Geodes, and tear it up a little, and somewhere through sending it up the creek lost a caliper bolt. Didn't realize as it was the top bolt and I wasn't braking much. I heard a clunk a few times but was thinking an LCA bolt was loose as I just had my alignment checked Saturday. Well when we got up out of the creek I went to reverse and the caliper flopped back and into the inside of the wheel and made a hell of a commotion so that's when I knew it was trouble. got under there, saw the missing bolt, zip tied er in place and started limping beck east towards I75, trying to get cell service to find a shop or a parts store. Saw Miracle's off the side of the road so decided to give them a try. Clint's was open one more hour when we pulled in. I waited for another gentleman to finish up with him and then laid out my problem. He asked me to back out so the other fella could leave and that's when it got real interesting. Reversed and when I braked to go back into drive.. NO BRAKES. Pedal hit the floor, I stomped the ebrake and I swear I didnt slow at all. was rolling towards some parked cars so last ditch I threw it in park, ground some gears but got her stopped. Turns out the brake line split as I was pulling in to his place from the caliper bouncing around. Had I passed Clint's shop, or had he been closed I would have been in serious trouble.

Clint was able to pull me up into a bay, he made a bolt from another standard bolt, and made a new brake line for the little piece that attaches the flex line to the caliper. We got it bled and leak checked. All good!

He charged me a very fair price, of which I added an additional 20%. I talked with him quite a bit while he worked. He knew his stuff.

Clint was the real deal, and a real cool guy. If you are out that way and need some help, give him a shot. I wouldn't hesitate!

You should add this review to Google also. He has 5 stars on there already but couldn't hurt.

 

Working on it now, lol..

 

The kicker to it all was my brother in law asked me as we were headed up that morning 'You ever break anything offroading this thing?' I should thrown him out of the truck right then.. All in all is was a fantastic day. Thanks to Clint (and no thanks to my B-I-L) we got home in one piece.
