Bent axel the pass. side rear tire wobbles side to side about 3/4" at the tread its not so much that it wears the tire funny but the truck dose have a shake to it. I can't find a donor for a axel transplant where I live so .. Is there a different model truck that I could get a axel from and put in without mods.

The truck is a 85 d 100 with a A833-OD and unknown gear ratio
Thanks for any help

I agree. The axle is difficult to bend thouh it can happen. It's much more likely to be the wheel, especially with a wobble that severe.

This truck took a hard hit from a 04 F150. It spun the truck 180* around, caved the side of the bed and still drove home. Also I noticed the drum is wearing odd. The rim that was on that axel at the time of crash was ruined along with the tire.
