This is NOT a slam on RMS!!! Just want to make sure you all know I am not on any kind of rant here.
Has anyone ever seen this happen?? I KNOW I tightened this down because I distinctly remember asking my buddy if he had a special socket or something I could use to do so. The car drove perfectly fine and did not pull or vibrate or give any clue something was wrong EXCEPT...one day after putting maybe 1000 miles on her I was backing out of my driveway turning right and as the wheel went down the curb the tire grabbed the bottom of the front edge of the fender, pulling it up and distorting it. I could not understand what was up because there had been no problem up to that point. I drove on another 700 miles including the whole week at Reno and if I backed up that way it would rub but no other indications of problems.
We put it on the lift today and found this!!
