Default Rear Wheel Hubs or No??

Ok, I haven't looked at the car yet, but shouldn't this car have a rear wheel hub like every other car or is this thing seriously part of the axel?? I can only find "Front Wheel Hub" EVERYWHERE! I can not find any one saying rear. On most cars they are the same anyhow but like I said, I haven't looked at them yet but Im looking to buy the parts now. Let me know, thanks.

The rear hub is part of the axle. They are inseparable, unless you snap the axle.

lol, no. I hear a pop when i hit the gas too hard and on the cavy, that meant bad wheel bearing, but id just get a whole new hub. It was more worth it. But if it was the axel on this, I dont think Id be driving at all.

Oh, check your tranny mount then. If it's torn, the tail of the trans will lift and whack the tunnel when you gas it.

Thank you, that actually makes sense as to what it could be. Because if I keep on it, it sounds like its grinding. But if I think about it being that, Im probably hearing the vibration from the trans up against the tunnel.

...And maybe even the u-joints groaning from the lifting trans screwing up the pinion angle.
