So the outer bearing disintegrated and let the drum come off the spindle past the washer, nut, and cotter pin? I have never heard of that happening, I guess I officially have not seen it all yet!
We've had it happen on the farm to grain wagons. It probably was running to dry without enough grease. Makes a mess of everything when it happens. He may get lucky and keep his spindle but, quite often it will wreck that too. Everything else is junk now and needs to be replaced. Well, not the wheel, tire, and break drum obviously.
