Exclamation
On highway prior to last stop, she was steady @ 55-60lbs. Standard idle is about 15-20 lbs. But I must admit, I don't remember the reading just prior to losing the shear pin. Yes, I am also praying there wasn't enough time to cause any bearing damage, it was very quick! Mabe 15 seconds from shear pin loss to complete stop. I hope to learn more as the R&R starts.
