My Dump Truck was involved in accident and about 11 months later and 11,000 miles. Trans dropped and bolts were found sheered off missing and the rest pulled out. Could the bolts have broken or cracked from impact from accident and when they finally broke off months later caused the others to pull out. Our Insurance company is saying no. Because there was no impact directly on trans. What is your opinion does anyone know the rate at which these bolts fail under normal wear and tear. The tranny was replaced around 4-5 years prior to accident. All the mechanics we have spoke to say they don't see this as wear and tear, but that is what the insurance company is saying. Just looking to see if there is anyone that could offer any advise or expertise to help us fight the insurance company.
