Brenda, I would have torque redone on all wheels. I'd also be having a chat with the mechanic who packed the wheel bearings.

Thanks Anita.
They will be replacing one axle and all 4 tires. I am wanting 4 new tires because I feel the 3 carrying all the load may have been compromised.
I will insist on hand torquing rather than using their air torque.
I will be talking with the mechanic who repacked the bearings when I get home in November. I will also wait to replace the fender skirt at that time too, it's just cosmetic and my local dealer will take care of it.
I have enough white electrical tape and caulking to cover any holes and prevent water intrusion. The one thing my late husband made sure , was that we had lots of tools and repair supplies on board and that hasn't changed at all. I know Glen was watching over me because it could have been much worse, the tire that rubbed the wheel well did not even rub through the plastic underbelly covering.
