Default When ordering an axle.....

hey guys if the stock axle is only slightly tweaked like as much as an inch i would just go get it straightened, any decent shop with a press should be able to straighten it within an eight of an inch or better. my buddy bent his in a hard crash and i took it to a shop that does heat treating, like axles n stuff for cars, the guys did it there for $20 and in like 20 minutes. i'd say that the stock axle is as strong or better then most of the aftermarket axles out there, his axle that got bent was fixed like two years ago, and has been fine ever since. if ya get it tweaked back straight, you won't even notice a slight wobble while riding, 1/8" is nothing at speed for a bent axle, and its $400 cheaper then getting an aftermarket one. laterzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz,,, josh....
