they were trying new front hubs, and his had a complete failure of one side, which made the other go too, they checked their other car, and it was failing to.

I like it how he still steers to correct the slide, even though he is completely lacking a front end :thumbsup:

LOL! And aren't there wires that "should" keep the wheels from leaving the car? :lol:

Or was that abandoned?

no there should be something holding the wires on, the fia will have to investigate and "help" sort it out
