That is indeed who will be getting a call from me tomorrow. He already knows the the situation.

And jakes89f150,

Yeah. :haha: :fawkdancesmiley:

More special than a wooden ruler or tape measure. :beer:
 
You could flame straighten the steel tube with a multi flame tip and some water.

I've straightened things similar to that before.

If you like I'd be willing to try it: take about an hour. Wouldn't charge you anything.

Still plan on it. It's been like this for over a month and I didn't notice till now. It's on restricted service till it comes apart.

I wheeled Reiter a couple times since the bend for **** sake.

How about Sunday?
 
Horus, Sunday: no problem I'm on strike I got nothing but time.

Your gonna need to pull the housing off your truck and take the axle shaft, bearing and seal off that side. Maybe, maybe not pull the race depending on how close we get with the torch. (I've got pullers)

We'll sand most the paint off the bent area with 2" disk and clean out as much oil from inside the tube as we can.
(Hydrocarbons and red hot steel = bad)

PM me and I'll give you my phone number :awesomework:
