Re: Broke an axle
This is the typical breaking point on most every early Ford axle that I've seen broken in the years I've been playing with these old Fords. I also have some axles that I removed from rears I bought to salvage parts from that have visible cracks just starting at that same point of failure. I have to agree with the folks here who are saying most of these axle failures are a direct result of not having the axle nut torqued to the correct specification.
