[T3] Odd Rear Wheel Mystery


Hey Gang -

The other day I heard a clucking sound coming from the Square's rear end,
but only at slow speeds. After getting out and hunting around (pushing on
the bumper to try and recreate the sound) I found nothing. When I got home I
pushed the car in the driveway and figured out that the noise was coming
from the hubcap, pried it off and found a lug-nut totally out of it's
socket. Upon further inspection I found that the hubs were loose, but safe
because the cotter pin was holding it from coming off. I looked at the other
side and found that the hub there was also loose, but the lugs were all
tight. Anybody ever had this happen to them? I wonder if the hubs weren't
toqued enough when last put on?

peace - Wilson
