Broken Rear Axle Photo Needed 1 Attachment(s)
Hi all! I am preparing a presentation for my local Model "A" club and I need a photo of a broken piece of a Model "A" rear axle. I have the attached photo of what I need, but the photo has a dark background, so I cannot use it. I would much appreciate a post of this axle piece on a white / very light background.

Re: Broken Rear Axle Photo Needed The photo is very interesting from a metallurgical standpoint. It looks like a crack started at the keyway and then the strength was finally reduced to the point where it snapped.

Re: Broken Rear Axle Photo Needed Bob, that is exactly where a rear axle will break on a Model A. I have explained in the past why that is. If you haven't seen that, feel free to contact me and I'll explain. Once explained, the cause is obvious but not many know it.

Re: Broken Rear Axle Photo Needed Y, what program did you use to remove the background?
