The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Front Axle

I am curious HOW that hole can get worn. The spindle bolt is held tight in that hole by the bolt thru the axle. The only way that hole can wear if that thru bolt is loose. The hole in the axle for the spindle bolt is not even machined in an original axle. It is just cast in the casting.

How does that hole wear?
