Straightening a 8.75 rear end
I straighten all kinds of axle housings, Dana, 8.8, GM , 8.75
Straightening housings requires the jig to find the problem and then a press to press it accordingly to the bend.
Some housings are bent at the end, some at the middle of the tube and some at the center-section out.
All depends on the cause when it's looked at.
Yours sounds like it bent after the ladder bar link location from lack of a brace, which is common when people put links on the housing they always do it inboard rather than keeping it as close to the end as possible.
