Question about Wire Wheel Banjo-type 1964 MGB rear axle
Sun, 24 Jun 2007 12:58:30 -0500
Last Tuesday the left-side (US Driver's side) axle broke on my Victor
Special (based on 1964 MGB). It broke clean around 8" from the hub
extension; almost looks like it was sawed off in a lathe.
I removed the wheel and the nuts that hold the hub extension to the hub,
upon which, the hubextension and axle piec ...

I'm tempted to try to fit a more rob ...
