Drove it till the wheels fell off,...Literally

[kingranch]

does anyone know where i could get the spindle for the rear end on an 88 festiva? i was driving down the road and the entire wheel and brake drum flew off.... hsnap: leaving me skidding down the road! sad times! after i stopped i pushed it back to the house and discovered i need what i think is called a spindle. has 4 bolts that attach to the brake drum i think. reguardless, its in multiple peices and id like to get it driving again. i guess the guy that had it before me stripped out the screws. also, i need new tail lights,.... they broke in the process.

Welcome to the site! Too bad it is under these circumstances!

The first thing you need to do is go into your profile and add your location. This way I will know whether it would be worth it to you if I send you the spare tail lights I have, lol........ (shipping may be too much if you are far away, or I could drive them over if you are close!)

Second, sit back and relax, because around here you will get all the help you need!

spare tail lights would really hit the spot, but i think im a little far for a drive, might cost 50 bucks in gas! :-P

read the rules for putting an ad in the for sale/want to buy section then post an ad int the for sale/want to buy section also note which spindle you need drivers side rear or passenger there is a difference then do the same for the lights & watch the magic happen
