Delete now if you're sick and tired of all this axle talk. Otherwise, especially if you're a technophobe, read on. Every hub / axle assembly that I've taken apart has exhibited a puzzling thing. The

Hmmmm. Now, and I have no idea whether axles were a problem in the 50's and 60's (Kas can you help here?), apply contemporary tire compounds, tread designs and such to these axles and then rerun the

Jack, If the problem is caused by flexing and "bell mouthing", as you suspect, the different appearing surface of the axle may hold the answer. Do you (or other FOT) have access to high magnificatio

I'm not talking about the bearing housing. It's the HUB. The portion of the HUB inboard of the flange where the wheel bolts on. And most of the axles are breaking about 1/2" down inside the HUB -- at

FYI A Healey friend removed a fitted axel from a Big Healey. seems it might be Chrysler giving note to left hand thread lug nuts. Contact me off line if there is any interest in this "Bugger"

Hey, if we can assemble a few broken hub/axle assemblies, I have a friend (who is a flagger)who does failure analysis for Cat. Perhaps we could have them looked at to see if there is a pattern. Bob

On Friday I had proposed (off list to Jack D.) sending an axle, with the wear pattern he noticed, to Duke University (my alma mater) to have them examined. The engineering program at Duke has a fail

We broke axles. In everything. Spits, Tr-6's, Gt-6s until I was tired of looking at rolled up cars. We finally made our own axles for the Spti and GT6 with a forging of vascojet 1000 steel wherein th
