Bent front axle tube? Dodge 4x4

Steve 17 February 2005 07:23:53
 The story:

1988 Dodge Power Ram, 3/4 Ton, 4x4 pickup.

Excessive camber (toe out) on left front tire.

I stood down the street, about 50 feet in front of my truck, when it was
parked on level pavement, and I held a one foot long ruler in front of me
and sighted it up to the line of the front axle housing. The axle housing
looks to be slightly bent downward. Also, the left front tire is toed out.
The truck drives just fine and it's not making any noises, vibrations, nor
is handling or cornering a problem.

My questions are, perhaps the axle tube is bent?

Or perhaps the steering mechanisms are bent?

If the axle housing is bent, and it's not causing any driving difficulties,
would it be safe to drive this truck for the short term, until I could get
it repaired?
