Yep, thats not a lug nut failure, thats either a C-clip or bearing failure and the wheel is still bolted to the axle and the drum

I was thinking more along the lines of a Samurai's backing plate... 4 bolts to hold the whole axle assembly into the housing.

Go to Limewire and download Ron White's tirade about the Sears Auto Service Centres. It's hilarious and very on topic.

Love that guy. He's so damn crude.

I have had that happen to the Dana 70 in my old 79 F-350 the axle nuts backed off and the hub and wheels walked off the spindle. Its a common problem with full floaters when the lock washer lets go.

I vote on bearing failure as it looks pretty stock and I doubt the diff has ever been touched, it is a 3rd member rear though.. I doubt the backing plate nuts just backed off, if they did it was because they broke..
