oh no, is this 8.75 housing too bad?

The work is a little slopy but it could be straight and done with a jig. They should have corrected the bent tube before welding
the end on but It doesn't really have to be as long as the end is
true to the center bearings and the axle shafts dont rub
the tubes. I would put it together and if the axle turns free
a jig was likely used. It may work just fine functionally not so
much cosmetically.
