Do I get that done at the same place where I can get wires stretched and muffler bearings

Not a joke.

You are welding on a formed tube part and not as thick a wall as a Dana 60 etc.

I have a housing that so eone didn't heed the FSM and they tightened the u bolts too tight and crushed the tube.

I have not measured it but I am sure the housing is not streight

The heat WILL cause the metal to move.

Google it. There are photos showing how far out some housings are.

Projects - Straightening an axle housing - How straight ?

Is this 8 3/4 housing bowed?

First time straightening an 8 3/4 housing!
