Default Re: Broke an axle

Jim, if you don't already have brake drum safety devices installed, you should put them on when you rebuild the rear.

When you break an axle, the drum can easily come off and catastrophic things happen when this occurs.

I know it is a rare deal, but can you imagine if you were going around a corner when an axle breaks and the whole wheel/drum comes off. Bad JuJu!
