Beauty, but you forgot the bucktooth, snagglepuss lookin, spandex with ketchup stains wearin, plug chewin, hillybilly babe with a neck brace and one of those inflatable leg casts trying to smoke a cigarette and drink a beer standing next to it.

I cant find one of those in the internet, I would look around my neighborhood but I dont want to go and take a picture of a random person.

[Earlsfat]

I'll keep an eye out for you. Usually see one of them like... right before I go into a pizza joint, and it totally ruins my appetite.

The axle should still be strong enough to take it. It’s an open diff so the force wouldn’t all be on that axle. Also this doesn’t look or sound like a lock up. If it was a lock up the car should have spun out without warning and most of the tire should still be on the wheel.

It looks and sounds like the axle broke off and the wheel was held on for a little while by the brake disc and caliper slowing down the wheel which striped the tire off of it, wall spinning out the car and then the wheel came off the rest of the way.

Damn AF for not giving my a buzzer .

I completely disagree with you. I like how your saying the axle should have been strong enough to take pressure from traveling at 70+MPH but your theory is it wasn't strong enough to handle regular normal driving conditions . Lets just call this one a complete disagreement and call it a day.

Also if you go back you will notice that Xeno (even though he was highly medicated most likely) noted sounds coming from the rear that stopped shortly before the accident happen. It was most likely the tire skipping from occasional lock up.

I'm a 1/2 mile from NBC tower, you want me to swing by the Jerry Springer studio and snag one at random?

The axle snapped! First thing, get a product liability lawyer.

Next, find an independent engineering firm (look up non-destructive testing in the phone book) to do a hardness test on the axle stub that is still with the wheel. Have it checked on the outer diameter close to the break as possible, then 1/4" back from that, then 1" back. Have the break itself checked too.

Then contact the local area rep from your Ford dealer, just don't tell him that you have a lawyer if you get one. The Ford dealer will put you in touch with the rep. I have never seen an axle break like that on a street car, unless it was previously hit on the wheel and stressed.

Good luck, Bob

FORD: Found On Road Dead, a prime example.
