Axle bend question
Kind of a newb question.
My tires tip in a the top ever so slightly. I'm a bit concerned.
If the front D44 starts to bend from running 35" tires and driving fast off road or hitting speed bumps (or what ever) is it too late to try and add some sort of reinforcement to straighten it out?
How can you tell if it's the axle tubes, center section, or jus the outer "C"?

My tires have no lean yet, but I have the same concern as you. I am going to have our local shop here do the gusset and sleeve install, since my welds suck...(emergency trail use only!)
