When I was 16 and driving around all fat dumb and happy in my very used
100-4, my left rear came off and ended up a 1/4 mile into a corn field.
I didn't even know there was right and wrong side, but using the largest
ball-peen hammer in the box solved the loosening up problem once and for
all. Of course it didn?t do the knock-offs any good either.
