I'm driving the gator (a small underpowered side by side 4x4) two days ago and the left front wheel fell all the way off. One lug nut was right beside it, one 100ft away and no sign of the other three. All other wheels perfectly torqued.
Happened to me on a 1970 1/2 z28. Same drivers side front wheel, same story. Wheel fell off.
I had a vw sandbuggy with a REAL bus trans and the portal axles. Left rear wheel was so loose, but never came off, it slotted the holes about double size.
It never really clunked like you'd think it would.
Check your wheels on occasion.
