Doesn't that presume that there is some metal to metal contact out past the
transmission?  I'm trying to think of one, and can't.  The rear end is
strapped to the springs and those are suspended in larger rubber bushings,
right?  I guess there are the shock absorbers.  But, doesn't the internal
shaft ride on a non-metallic bushing too?

Ahhh, the emergency brake cable.  Never mind!
