does not look that bad,,try rethreading the axke end and a new nut,,the nuts are a softer thread so the nut takes the bulk of the dammage..if that dont cut it you can replace the end,in my area theirs a guy called the axle saver,,200 bux installed..

Yeah the nut is supposed to be softer but it tore all the threads off. And the hub took A bit more off the bottom than that when the wheel tried to come off. Go thing i check my mirrors a lot that's all I can say. No more u turns either!! I can weld some stuff on there and grind it and get a die and re cut the threads. That's what I think I'm gonna do/ If that doesn't work I could get it sung and weld the friggin nut on it. Axxel is junk anyway. Put new bearing on it. I wanna try to weld an re thread it first. Boat is going no where til I do this!
