Did a one wheel peel then rear axle is warped, i think....need help!*PICS*
Here lately turns to the right would create a one wheel spin (passenger tire). The other day I turned right and got on the gas pretty good and something went wrong in my rearend. The car sits lower at the passenger rear wheel and the rear wheel looks like its crooked. It still rolls but from 10mph+ all it does is thump thump thump thump. Do I have a bent axle shaft or could it be something more serious? I was thinking of purchasing a complete used Rear-end right after it happened because i suspected the rear end to be shot. Now im hoping I can replace the damaged parts. None of the suspension parts are damaged. The wheel is just crooked on that side. Any ideas on what it could be? I had been giving it hell that day which is unusual. Had a couple races and I sprayed both times on some pretty hard launches. I wish I knew what i broke. Im digging in it tomorrow to see what i can find out. Here are some pics of underneath and from outside the car. You cant really see how the wheel is cocked until I back it up and move it to another position. Anyway let me know if you see anything abnormal in the pics that would cause this problem.

Have a look at the axle tube!
It my have cracked and broken.
May just have broken the axle bearing.
Do not drive around, when the wheel comes off it's not pretty

The housing looks good from here!
The oil on the inside of the tires is a bad sign
Jack her up and spin the wheels by hand and feel for roughness
and lift up on the tire and check for vertical movement.
either of these would be a bad bearing. If you can pull out on the wheel
and the whole damn thing comes out, "axle and all" consider your self
lucky to be alive!
Anyway you look at it your gonna have to disassemble the rear any way
so you will soon find the problem. good luck

That looks like oil but it was raining when i took those pics a while ago. And water is steady running down the rim and to the inside on both sides. I thought the same thing at first. Im hoping its just a warped axle.
