I had a similar escape from disaster . We were at a show in town. The merchants wanted us to park on the wide side walks. When I drove off the side walk I had no steering. The welded on ball had probably broken when I backed over the curb.Really lucky,just parked and got a tow home.This was 20 or so years ago. New ball and studs were available with threaded ends and pinned nuts complete with tapered shaft to fit.Still on, no worries. Doesn't look original but that's ok with me.
