Help!!
Wheel came off today on the way to the 4wd tracks

Got it back on and tow trucked home
Threads on the axle are stuffed.

I need new brakes- drum- axle studs and wheel studs/nuts
Possibly new axle housing as the Lower shock mount is bent inwards quite badly compared to the other side.
How can i tell if the axle housing is bent?

that sucks, measure to a fixed point somewhere along the chassis on both sides. do it in a few directions to, if your numbers dont add up to be the same then its bent.

Photo?

My rear wheel came of not long ago, ive gone a bit obsessive now making sure every wheel nut and bolt under the car is tight now..

Only had cracked drum and had to put all the parts back in as fell out, along with new pads.
