Default another axle question

Some one raised the question of putting Scout II axles under an 800 on the BB. A guy responded that virtually all Scout axle housings are bent. So, he went on, unless you have them straightened, you will be burning through bearings.

Is this an exaggeration? Since I am installing Scout II axles of unknown pedigree on my 800, how would I measure to know if the tubes are bent? If they are bent, how do I get them straightened?
