No Splitz, thats not gonna work. I seem to have a one of a kind wheel end stub axle held on with a nut. Where everybody else I've spoke to does not have this nut.

Yes, Brasilias had rear bumpers. They were the same as non-overrrider split rear bumpers, so very hard to find.

The 41mm nut on the back of the stub axle is there on all big nut RGBs; nothing unusual about it.
