I have to say that would definitely be a bad day 0lddart
Venting is good, Looks like ramcharger found you some parts to eazz the pain. I hope things turn around for the better for you.
 
Yep! That's a crap day. Reminds me of the time my day was going really really bad when I was driving dsown the road, something caught my eye. Beileve it or not, there was a spare tire rolling down the Hwy. with me and it didn't have a freakin car attached to it. Just a fully inflated rim and tire do 50 MPH.

Well, it started to tilt towards me, I couldn't get away from it. Moved left, hit the bracke, WHAM!

Door, fender, hood black marks like a tribal tatto! I was so upset, I calmed down. (I know, weird huh?)

The person responseable tried to do the right thing and offered me a check for damages. I looked closely and realized there really wsas none. Blew him off and told him have a good day without reason.

You're a better man than me, lol!
 
My daughters spare dropped out from under the back of a 95 Explorer and passed her on the hiway...the strap that held it up rotted off...
 
Sorry to hear of your dilemma, OldDart.

I love those old Broncos. Ya got a 302 in it?

I had the rear wheel come off and pass me while driving along Hwy99. Luckily, it was after going thru the tunnel, and not during.

Unluckily, it was on the '71 Cuda that I had bought just two days previous. I was in tears. The rear quarter was thrashed.

Hope all works out and you get her back on the road with as little pain as possible.
 
ramcharger you are the man :)

and all is ok ish tried to drive the dart but it started making god auful noises and started to pulsate from the rear i think i am running a dead bearing in the 7 1/4 :(

so i bit the bullet bought 720 bucks worth of tires........ dunlop mud rover 35/12.50R15 :D im stoked cant wait to get em dirty

and yes it had a 302 now a 306 and soon to be a 310. needs to be rebuilt again
