Clarification: "Larry drove with the parking brake set. A long way."

Larry did not drive with the parking brake set. Mark said the parking brake cable disengaged from the brake housing allowing the bottom part of the drum disk to rub against the hub, which caused overheating and melting of the plastic gage holding the ball bearings in place. They freefloated and trashed the wheel bearing. That's my story and I am sticking to it...
