So insurance adjustor is trying to say this was all caused by a blow out? Your thoughts?

Will they cover it if it was all caused by a blow out?

If so then I say agree with him for sure even if you don't feel that is what happened at least you will get your truck fixed.

The only thing they won't cover if it were caused by blow out is the tire...
They are covering everything. I just want a new tire too. They will buy me a new wheel but not a new tire because that's "what caused the accident"

God issuance companies are sometimes so ridicules.

I know right!!!

Tires are cheap compared to what you would have had to pay.

you should really invest in a 140 lb tq stick . it looks like a 6-8" 1/2 socket extension with a certain diameter that will stop at a certain amount of torsional twist or tq. i use them when i swap wheels on my impact. the thing is you cant ever use them in reverse supposdly because it can change the load it will stop at .

cornwell makes a nice kit for about80 bucks with 5 different tq specs so you can do different wheels , they also have a cool wheel socket set so you dont scrath that bling .



gotta get em on sale but they are worth it , there are other makes but alot of them have certain sized socket ends and that really limits what you can use them on , this way these can be used to torque any size to any tq you want


this is the socket set , my 19mm has been used and my wheels look awesome still

Thanks chase! I'll definitely be looking into one.

So I talked with my cousin yesterday and he thinks we will be able to do some of the upgrades I have been planning on doing...bigger single piece tierods, 05+ front brakes, get at least 2 of my wheels powdercoated, and possibly add some drop spindles to go with the shackles I have at home. So things are looking up.

Insurance paying for all that? Lucky you! hahaha worked out nicely for you.

Don't know anymore...just found out that they may want to use used parts to fix everything...
