The rear axle is, as you probably know, the screw-in-torque-tube type. This lasted only around 18 months before being changed to the last of the short-chassis versions, the 'long-flange' design. In the past, people have reported problems with the screw-in version, but my 1930 Chummy had one and I added well over 120,000 miles to those already done on the original when the car was bought in 1963. So, it can't all be bad news! Some useful details on back axles here: http://pub25.bravenet.com/forum/static/s...7&cmd=show
