[QUOTE="rushfan, post: 243900, member: 1631"] It could have been according to the mechanic. I was in a neighborhood going about 15. I tried to stop, no brakes, and couldn't shift. I looked in my left mirror, and one of the rear tires was out of the wheel well. Mechanic showed up and said, "good thing you weren't on the freeway". The left rear axle was coming out of the "pumpkin". We had a driver in a diesel ford 1000 who had a hard time steering. Turns out the U bolts holding the axle to the front leaf spring were loose. It pays during you pretrip to inspect the leaf springs in the front. [/QUOTE]
