Default Bent axle or hub?

Long story short, slapped a boulder bent the crap outta the rear rim . Replaced rim but still can see a wobble is it more likely to be the hub or the axle. it was the rear tire on the chain side 2005 400 ex

Did the same thing with a tree, I took my hub off and layed it face down on my counter to see if it wobbles, it didn't so it was my axle, replaced it ---- good to go!

Hey ya'll....the night before last i had a similar thing happen i believe because yesterday i got back on to ride and my buddy said it looked like my back right tire was about to wobble off. from what i can tell, either the hub or the axle is bent like ya'll were saying. out of curiosity, how much did it cost for ya'll to repair ya'lls? ive got a 2000 foreman 450es..Thanks
