      Hey, Bryan!

      This is Fast Freddy

      Just weld it and you’re good to go, no biggie at all

      It probably cracked from going too fast, I noticed as I couldn’t catch you

      Something had to give Lol. ( Man you were flying!!! )

      Another thing to look for is your spindle bearings, they do brake, remove the tie rod ends from spindle and move the spindle side by side, also make the tire straight, grab it and try to move it up and down, if it has significant amount of play

      Replace the spindle bearings and king pins.

      Hope that helps?

      Good race, last Saturday night, Buddy, good job.

      Thanks Freddy, although I don’t think your going to let me get away with it so easy next race. Should be fun with a big field.

      I checked for play and I have hardly any up and down movement. I might could find a tig welder in town that can tack that back on for me. I wanted to have Orville check my alignment and all that with a laser anyways this weekend.

      Thanks
