Don't forget to tighten wheels
Last Sunday I did a rear suspention llift on my Beetle, I was so eager to go for a test drive, I forgot to toghten the one wheel, I suddenly had this vibration, then she dropped and the wheel came rolling past me and ended up in the dam, fortunatly it happen very close to home so I had it sorted in no time.

I hope the wheel didn't cause any bodywork damage when it came off.

Re: Don't forget to tighten wheels
Happened to me twice, when I had my rims epoxyed and forgot to remove the epoxy in the bolt recesses. 
Why do we celebrate the guy that invented the wheel??
Surely we must celebrate the guy tat invented the other three
