Straightening wide front spindle

Posted by Harley on September 24, 2005 at 10:01:40 from (205.188.117.73):

Hey guys, got a wide front spindle on the left side of a Norden wide front end that kinda bows down like a fat lady's knees. Almost lets the tire rub on the top. Can't see any cracks or breaks on this, but like somebody else we all know and love, something like this just jumps out at me every time I get on the tractor and just drives me nuts. Here's the question. After jacking that side up, taking the top nut off, taking the tire off, and dropping the spindle out, can I torch almost through the bottom weld, bend the axle to the right angle, and reweld it so it stand up right? Any help appreciated, thanks, Harley
