Well, i had my first proper morgan adventure last night!
Me wheel fell off haha. Was an interesting situation, not a clue how it happened at all, but the off side front big nut managed to work itself loose (guessing that the grub screw wasn't fully secured into place) But being they are oposite threaded i cant understand how it managed to work itself off, i'd even checked it the day before and it was tight!
So picture the scene, dual carriageway style road (its a 40 limit as its part residential) outside lane, heres me stuck with a half on wheel. horrible drizzle, 1 am and was there til the back of 3 after a nic police officer stopped and organised roadside recovery for me.
So the damage done . . . Well the six metal studs that lock into the disk were all askew, but thanks to a big hammer and an angle grinder to tidy up the roughed edges got them all lined up with the disk again. The actual wheel itself on the inside where it knocked against the calliper has cracked itself, so the wheel is away being welded at the moment untill i can get a replacement which Russell is sourcing for me at the moment
Just glad that the wheel didn't fully come off the car but i think it caused a wee bit of damage to the wing as it doesn't seem to sit as flush with the running board but will properly look into that once im back up and running!
Cars eh? Who'd have em! haha
