Default Bent dog bone on RC8

I have a bent front dog bone on my RC8. I bent it back to as close to straight as I could. It is still kinda bent, not quite perfectly straight. Can I run the car with this dog bone or do I need to replace it?

depending on how bent it is you may still be able to use it. If it can pop out I would replace it. If it seems to vibrate the wheel when at speed this can cause premature wearing of bearings. If its pretty close to straight I would use it as a spare and still get a new one.
