Cool Poll for Everyone!

Ok, so a little while ago I pulled the drivers side front tire on my 1999 Ram, V-10, 4X4, ex-cab as stated in my signature. Now the last shop that worked on my truck (which I hate anyone working on it) did some work to the front end (not going to state exactly what mind you). Now I was originally just looking for worn front-end parts when I noticed something in particular standing outright at me, which was incorrectly installed.

So I decided to make a game out of the issue and see who can guess where the issue(s) may lie. I only took a picture of the passenger side which had the same issue, but both sides where the exact same. By the way the last people to look at my truck for front end work was Les Schwab, what idiots!

Now if you know the answer great, but please keep it to yourself, and PLEASE don't give anything away! Lets let everyone have a stab at it. I thought a poll style generic answer sheet like a basic multiple-choice test would be the best way to do this.

Test your mechanic skill, as this is open for anyone!


Good luck!!!!!!

Come on, 136 views and no post bumps, and only 4 votes, 3 being right mind you. Come on we can still talk and bump this thread up. Use your imagination.

This thread won't state the person actually wrong, so if that's you, well you won't fail and nobody knows so rest assured. Come on, use your imagination........Remember this is for fun not a test!

There was no noise, just somebody didn't install something correctly and when I pulled the tire off I about died, only took me about 5-10 seconds to see it! The thing is I don't know how it didn't break. I'm think'in about call'in corporate but I doubt the would do anything anyway.
