[T3] what have I done?

[Iamkeen@aol.com]

how badly have I screwed up this time?
I hear something rattling around inside my left rear hubcap - what, how'd a 
stone get in there?  wait, that's not a stone - that's the big castellated 
nut that sticks out of the hub!  And lookit this, it's twisted & sheared 
right off, flush w/ the drum.
Will I need to replace the whole axle? just the bearing? Just the outer CV, 
or both?
And what caused this?  Did I simply cook a bearing, or is this a symptom of 
some more sinister problem within the transaxle?

Dammit, and the squareback was supposed to take us camping this week!
As always, your advice, admonishments, and insights are most appreciated.  
Happy Holidays, all!
