Default Square Wheel problem SOLVED---CF6873 & VinceVette

The e-brake had come loose and some of the parts had been rolling around and jammed the wheel. It had also chewed up a U-joint.
Then I came home and was reading in the forum where "CF6873" had posted to my previous topic about the e-brake....thanks for the info.
"VinceVette" why do you think I need a gear change (3.70)? :auto: :steering:

I'm glad to hear the problem was not the rear end. Good advice from CF6873 & Vincevette. Got to check the easy stuff first, guess I missed on that one. Hopefully you will be back on the road in no time. :cheers:

I'm glad you got it fixed. In your original post you stated the wheel wasn't turning but I didn't know it was locked up. When I saw that is was locked up all signs pointed to the e-brake. Craig :cheers:
