Question:

Can I straighten a bent axle on my four wheeler?(Its a ds650 bombradier.)?

I wrecked on it n need to fix now!!!

Answer:

Straightening an axle is not a good thing to do. the metal is stressed and the axle will end up breaking some time down the road.
A friend of mine once bought a dirtbike that had one of the fork legs straightened. After about a month of riding, he was going around a berm and he turned to the right and the bike turned to the left. You can straighten it, but the grain structure of the metal will be damaged 2 times in the same spot.
