It's in Nevada somewhere. My bets Reno

FJ40 in Bakersfield PM'd you.

Bump for cool pics.

I have a '72 w/SBC, SM420, 4" Rough Country Lift, 5ea. brand new 35x12.50 BFG's on black powdercoated rims, rattlecan OD green paint, rough '81 seats, new Painless Wiring, electric fan doesn't overheat, custom front and rear bumpers, hard top and doors need some work. Overall, super solid rig...

Are you referring to the backing plate bolts? I'm referring to the big nut that holds on the brake drum.

the fix Thanks for the link antfj, do you happen to recall the size of the nut holding the brake drum on? I don't have one big enough so I'll have to go to the store.

Right after it happened I punched in a search and I guess it isn't that uncommon. I had all four tires on stands checking TC operation and was going to get out and pulled the parking brake out not realizing it was still in gear and BANG BANG. Scared the crap out of me and now the parking...
