Rear Axle key in BACKWARDS big trouble here
 

Hi all; A member of RG #85 went to check his '40 brakes and could not remove a rear hub/drum. ... Days later here is the result of an axle key that was installed backwards with the sharp edge on the inside... the key dug into the hub and locked it on the axle. the photos show the axle with the remains of the key installed incorrectly... the remains of the key are next to the axle and the rounded/tapered edge of the old key is visible. Forgot photos will repost. oops newc
