not just you, sorry. Raptors are easy to fix, though. Yesterday, the cotter key must have worked it's way out of the ball joint, because, I wheelied off a hill then looked down and my tire was sideways. Stole a lugnut off my dad's rancher for temporary fix :grin_nod:

I could always think about the little things that went on w/ my raptor and think about you.. And know.... no matter what was going on with my quad. MD was dealing with something worse....  :rofl:    :P
