For yall that went on the ride Saturday (5/8) here is the cause of my 3X4 adventure:
I never would have expected it to break here -- its probably the largest diameter of the axle inboard of the bearing. I am also really surprised that the hub didnt fail. The only thing holding the wheel in position is the 4 little bolts and the strength of the housing. Edited by alabamatoy |
