Yes, the inner stub axles. It was right around this time last year that DCDoug twisted his off (a CSX car), on the drag strip, but the other was an ERA. The ERA car had the optional rear, as I recall, and was 1000 times easier to perform the repair on. I kibitzed on DCDoug's job and it was a borderline nightmare changing that stubby out on a CSX car. Here's that thread: Need help diagnosing a clutch/tranny problem
