  10. Lumpy, is it common for axle housings to get bent? How does it happen? Collisions?

    Most every axle housing I have ever narrowed is bent to some degree. Most car rear ends are fairly close , The Impala 12 bolt I just did for the Tempest was spot on. Pickup rear ends are almost always bent from being heavily overloaded and driven over rough roads.

    If one had a bunch of different mounts welded on it that can throw one off.
