If this happened, it must've been on the solid axle TR's, but not the
ones with IRS.[snip]
I believe those 6 bolts *can* let go, since they strip so easily.
Is the "Tonys_Rollover.mpg" video file still available somewhere? Was that an
IRS car or solid axle? Did the axle break, or the hub just let loose in that
case?
