This was our test for an insurance claim, was tested on the drive by the adjuster, he showed. 006, within spec, but did the test behind the splines, we pulled it apart, checked it as you see it, claim reversed
If it's out of spec, replace it, no way I would ever try to bend it back, you could damage bearings and a whole lot more trying to safe a few bucks

Nope. The larger graduations are .001". The small graduations between them are .0001". That shaft was showing almost .009" runout at that point on the shaft. Should be considered scrap by nearly anybody's definition.
Thanks. Brad.
