- I pulled the left axle this morning and found the hub flange disconnected from the main part of the hub. Luckily, the break is tappered, so the wheel didn't come off. I had the hubs and axles magnafl

- You definately want the southwick axles soonest. I don't really expect Peyote to break an axle since it's loading less than a TR3, but the confidence factor is worth the money and time--axles break a

- You have learned how the TR3A\B\4 rear hubs normally fail. The cause is usually a big thump or two into another object(s) or using the wrong method to remove the hub from the half shaft. Age and rust

- And what is the correct way to remove the hub? I've heard a lot about axles breaking, but not much about hubs. That's why I took four of them apart and had them magnafluxed. They were all tough. I so

- The correct way to remove the hub is to remove the original axle/hub assembly and ....... THROW THEM AWAY! Take some advise from someone who wrecked his car because of an axle/hub failure. We were i

- I keep a hub handy which was not removed properly, so I can show it to folks who wonder why their Harbor Freight 2 or 3 leg puller shouldn't be forced into doing this job. The waves aren't quite big
