Expert Reply:
This would all depend on where the bend is located. If the torsion bar that connects the frame brackets together is bent, then you would need to buy a new axle. However, if the spindle on the torsion axle is bent, you can replace it. To prevent other malfunctions, I recommend using one of our Timbren Axle-Less System systems as they work independently of one another in addition to being an easy replacement option for most torsion axles.
I have attached a list of all our Timbren systems for you.
