Re: Rear axle tube bent in collision, how to bend back?
 

No states care about property crimes anymore. This country has become a
haven for career criminals. It's easier and cheaper to be a career criminal
than it is to work for your living.

Agreed! They don't even want to know about your property crime anymore,
and they won't even bother to take a report unless you need it for YOUR
insurance company.

Worse, they don't give a rip about 'minor' criminal matters anymore
either. A former mayor from a town near me never showed in court for
matters related to criminal corruption charges, and a warrant was issued
for his arrest. Cops publically admitted they weren't going to go pick
him up because he's not a dangerous felon. Nice attitude. Crime pays,
period.

If the property crime is enough, they will care. An FBI agent told me that
they would be interested for "say $150,000" in a fraud case while your local
officials may get involved for somewhat less. Not for a wrecked TJ though,
not unless there is personal injury.
