Leaving work on a county road I felt a little shudder in my jeep. I thought well when I get home Ill crawl under it and see wtf. I was about half mile from getting on a highway and it started jumping all around, I mean jumping. It knocked one of my headlights out.

Turns out one end of my track bar came off. Turned around and drove very slowly back to work and took the work truck home. Ill fix it tomorrow. But man if I had made it to the highway and going fast it would have been very bad.

I have a motorcycle mechanic certificate and have always done my own mechanic work. But I hate that shit now, outside of doing my own oil changes I prefer to pay someone else. In this case its at work and one bolt seems easy but Im not sure how Im going to hold the nut because fuck engineers. I just replaced a battery on a skidsteer and once again, fuck engineers.

I hear ya. I worked on aircraft in my younger days and hated having to work on my own shit after wrenching all day. Now, got a cozy desk dig. Using my shit now is kinda fun... till the torch or grinder has to come out.... good luck.

Make your own flag nut. Weld a piece of steel on it that will catch and keep it from rotating.
