rear end

Hey guys I have a 12 bolt under my 61 4x4, when I'm standing behind it, it looks like the wheels are kick out on the bottom. I'll try to get some pics today. Could this be that the axle bearings are worn out? Jeremy

Re: rear end

The axle housing itself could be bent also. I've seen this before, but only on trucks that were severely overloaded many many times.

Re: rear end
