MGBGT front fender, does anyone have a method to bend the steel fender bead without kinking it, not had much success yet. Thanks Mark
Mark, This might be known as "fender rolling" ? I believe they use progressively larger rollers(sticks), between the desired wheel tire combo, and the fender lip.By rolling it through, with gradual size increase, kinking is prevented. FWIW. roverman.
I wedged a baseball bat between the tire and the fender lip and slowly worked it over. This was on a TR6. It doesn't do anything good for the bat.
The Eastwood company makes a pretty slick fender bead roller.
It bolts on the wheel hub and extends out to the fender with a urethane roller.
It's not that expensive to buy and several places even rent them out.
How much clearance do you need to add? If it's not a lot, a side grinder might do the trick.
Hey Fred. Hope you are completely recovered form your plywood mishap.Are you following the Fi finaley? too bad Alonso got knocked out twice by twits so recently, he could be in a much better position. Tim
