So I changed tires from my mud to my AT's and about a quater mile down the road I realized that I didn't torque my front drivers side tire as good as I thought I did. Luckily I was only doing about 2mph in a construction zone and didn't damage anything that I can see. My rotor didn't hit the pavement. I landed on the nut that holds the lower control arm to the whel assembly. I had to drive/grind about 10ft to get some what off the side of the road. I am damn lucky and now know to triple check. But i'm still an idiot!

I was in the same boat today. Did some tire rotation over a week ago. Today started having some tire sounds. Some lugs had come loose and broke 3 studs. Had to dismantle everything and chage them out. Fun job. Renagade(troy) gave much help. Just wanted to slap the calmini sas kit in the back of the truck on.
