Default Re: Rear axle shafts

The rear hub bearings are the ONLY support for the outer ends of the axle shafts. Folks have fabricated rear drum retainers that will prevent the hub from departing in the event of a shaft breaking but they were mostly made for hydraulic brake set ups. I haven't seen any for model A rear ends.
