  • D30 bent

    So the c on my passenger side is definitely bent. I looked at everyone's yesterday and mine is different than all ya'lls. Is there anyway I can bend that back or should I just build a new axle?

    I would just to cut it off and weld on a new one.
    If you had any D30 kicking around I think they are all the same.

    I wouldn't even try to bend it back.

    That is just my 2 cents

        100% sure its bent? Did you measure camber or anything else?

        Shortening my d60 was a 3 hour ordeal with disassembling everything... And d60 ball joints bring the suck. Wouldn't be a terrible job if it actually was bent.

        Plate them up!

            Yup measured it at my old race shop on perfectly level ground. It's bent. Then I looked at everyone else's and they are totally straighter than mine. Well Andy's might not be anymore lol
