In all seriousness, my guess is the tie rod vibrated loose from the rack end because about 2 years ago we took it out and never torqued it to spec after putting it back in. Just gave it some good hand-tightening and it held in since until now.

 

Oh wow. Hope you're out there with some buddies.

 

They were back at camp. Luckily, I had all my own tools to fix it and drive back.

 

You hit the wrong mode. Your supposed to select sand, not snow. Everybody knows you can't "pizza" in the sand to slow down.

 

Was this at speed, or at a slower speed? Glad you didn't destroy the rig and that your safe!

 

Lesson learned!

 

This happened after I slowed down to cruise a little the last few miles to camp but I was playing it fast and loose a few minutes before this.

 

Depending on your speed you are probably lucky you weren't on the pavement

 

Bet that thing turns on a dime!

 

Have you tried turning it off then turning it back on?


I kid I kid

 

Might need to disconnect the battery for that one!

Actually, looks like his Tundra is just trying to mimic a crab!

Glad nothing serious happened as a result of this. Hate to think what could have been under different circumstances.

 

I see what your doing here... When the GMC breaks down, you'll most likely get one of those two Chrysler's to fire up and get you the rest of the way.
