Will an alignment fix the rear tires leaning in at the top? About to get new tires and don't want the inside wearing fast like these are

 

No it won't.

If both tires are truly leaning in at the top, you most likely have a seriously bent axle housing.

I guess its possible that worn axle bearings could play a part, but they likely would fail before long, and you'd know.

 

It's not really bad on the passenger side it's just a little bit hardly noticeable the drivers side it's pretty easy to tell

 

Would that still be a bent axle?

 

Bent axle/axles-- maybe. Bent axle housing for sure.

 

so would a new housing fix it?

 

Yes, but it takes some real abuse to bend one, other components, (axles mostly), may be tweeked also.

 

put the rear end up on blocks, and spin the rear tires, if there is a bent axle shaft it should show up as a wobbling wheel??

i just today noticed that both of my rear tires have more wear on the outside half of the thread than on the inside :-0 never seen that one before.

 

The wheel doesn't wobble it just runs tilted but no wobbling at all

 

Everyone I've asked that I thought might of known said just run it like it is but I don't like the tire wearin fast on the inside

 

Sure sounds like a bent rear housing.

 

A bent housing should be pretty easy to see.

That would be the only thing that would cause the wheels to be in the same position.

bent axle shaft or even bad bearing would cause a wobble in the wheel when looked at from the rear or front.

 

Wouldn't have thought you could even tow something heavy enough to bend the axles with the 3.0. I looked at full float conversions before - http://frontrangeoffroadfab.com/full...er-conversion/ - but decided against it for that reason.

 

How hard did you jump it and bottom it out? It takes a lot to bend these housings.

 

My dad used it to pull bass boats for 15 years and it blew a gasket a few months ago and when I got it back from the shop it's had problems with the rear end since 3rd member was loose as hell u joints went bad leakin like crazy idk why

 

I wonder if you now have a beat up old axle housing .

Because while it was at the shop they needed a good one.

Figured you would be to clueless to ever look real close.

I am not saying this happened I have seen it done in the past.

 

That's what I was thinking the head gasket on the motor they rebuilt blew after 19K and they redid my dads about 10 years ago and they took his radiator out and put it in his own vehicle and put the bad one in his and it overheated so much he sold it only reason I went there because it's all I could afford
