What do you mean by "bent"? Are you talking about the inner shaft or the plastic housing? Pics?

I don't think you can bend the axial housing or axles but I could be wrong there is some after market axles for the front and rear I think most of the shops on here carry them.

If it's soft enough to bend without breaking while you are driving, it's probably soft enough to straighten and use again? I think I saw someone else post here that he did that. Just an idea. Cheers. |

I have personaly never had a problem either but after searching around I see some other guys have had this issue also, mostly after taking a tumble. Here is a link to some stainless steel ones. Hope it will help. http://www.teamstrc.com/ebproductdet...inid=15&id=242 |
