I posted earlier about my floaty front suspension. On the way to the shop to get it check out, the driver side wheel buckled. Luck has it that I had just turned to get on the ramp to a major hwy. It has front fender damage and the wheel is folded back. Had it tow to shop and the lower ball joint had just snapped. The shop quoted $260 to have both sides replaced. Other than getting the fender fixed it rides like a new car. 2000 s-type 4.0 with 130000.

 

It sounds like you were lucky that it happened where it did.

I hope the damage is not too bad.

 

Not to bad a body shop quoted $150 to fix fender.

 

You were lucky not to crash and in repair bill. Good to know yer ok.

 

Good to see, that thing didn't cause an accident and damage seems not that bad at all

 

Glad you lived to tell the story.
Future "Good Luck"

 

I hope you learned something from this ordeal, instead of just chalking it up to "good luck" and having everyone pat you on the back! Suspension/steering issues are no joke, as I'm sure you have found out.

 

You sure are right and I am thankful it didnt happen while at hwy speed.
