bent axel question

I have a slightly bent axel on the left rear of my 68 with posi. I don't notice any vibration when driving. The seal is not leaking.

Is this something I need to worry about? What problems can it cause if I do not fix now?

Thanks for the help...again.

put it on jack stands and try it with no wheel,look at the face of the axle flange, it don't take much of a hit on a curb or anything to bend a wide wheel.

I did what robert suggested and there is a slight woble in the axel.

Again I feel no vibrations when driving.
What will happen if I do nothing?
thanks
It will eventually wear out the seal, wear out your tire, and ruin the bearing.
