right rear stub axle



Hmm..don't understand...if you have a bent stub axle, you'll have poor
handling, bad tire wear, and you'll eat up rear wheel bearings.  Simple
solution is to replace the stub axle.  

Now, if trailing arm is bent, your only hope for a proper cure is to
replace it  - it's not a bad job, really.
