The Jeep suddenly started shaking violently and the next minute I was riding on 3 wheels and a brake disk at 60MPH down the highway!!! The wheel apparently bounced 10’ in the air, over the 5' concrete median and in to the traffic on the other side of the highway. Unfortunately it hit a small car and looks like totaled it but no one was injured. Given how busy the highway was (6PM on 6th Avenue in Denver) and how destructive a 37” tire/wheel could be when out of control at that speed, it’s really amazing no one was hurt.
I have no clue how it suddenly sheared off but two lug bolts snapped off clean.
I got shook up a bit and got a ticker for driving a defective vehicle but such is life.
On the plus side I got my new bumper installed today and it’s a rather interesting way to cap off my 44th birthday
OK time for a large glass of Scotch now
