<< hi all, just went out for a ride in#5672 today...went over a few bumps
 in the road and heard a clunking noise comming from the passanger side
 in the front(wheel).  jacked up front end and found that my wheel has
 about a half inch of slop in it from side to side.  also brake assembly
 was very hot, wheel is also kinda hard to spin..........whats happening
 here????
