Old wives tale?

[tr6taylor@webtv.net (Sally or Dick Taylor)]

List---In looking at the way the rear hub is designed and attached to
the trailing arm, I see no way "the wheel could come off" if an axle
should break. Such an unlikely episode would also require that all six
bolts that secure the hub to the trailing arm would have to let go. 
If this happened, it must've been on the solid axle TR's, but not the
ones with IRS.  Perhaps the inspiration for the old Kenny Rogers hit,
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Loosewheel"
