In dire need of passenger side rear spindle...

[ajbremer]

My passenger side rear wheel bearings froze up and my wheel broke right off as I was going around 40mph. (Man, what an experience!)

Anyway, I can't find a spindle anywhere around here. I tried eBay BUT...I was wondering if any of you all had one around that you would sell or knew where I can pick one up at?

Thanks to you...

I don't have any spares, but can fix yours if nobody has one.

Rear Passenger Wheel Bearing Seized, Wheel Fell Off Going 40+ mph...

Here are some pics of how I got out of my situation after my wheel spindle broke from a seized bearing (going 40 mph).

I used a trailer axle with wheels to get it home. We C-Clamped it to the Festiva axle and then I drove it slowly home. I'm glad I was only 2 or 3 miiles from home on a back road. Check out these pics:

Wow, totally ingenious!
Were you able to find an axle?

AJ,
Did you ever get a spindle?
