Yes, a slight arch is normal.
Most of todays axels are garbage as noted by the picture above. Most are thin as a beer can and can bend under normal wear and tear.
Very true. After my axle was removed for replacement and the hub and all of the other items removed I was looking at the axle. I could not believe how light the axle was. as said made out of beer can thick steel.
After that I understood why they say do not jack up a trailer on the axles.
