Youngster needs help

Hey guys I'm Jarod I've got a model t coupster I'm getting ready to build. I've got a split 36 ford wishbone. Well just noticed that one of them is bent almost 1/2". Any have any suggestions on how to striaghten it back.
Thanks

 

I would suggest a replacement. HRP

 

X2 Jarod... If you could describe the bend or better yet, a picture, maybe we could get more creative with a solution ...robber

 

A pic of just how the bend is might help... They are kind of thin to be straightened if bent too severely...

 

Yeah was afraid of that I'm on my iPhone but ill try to figure something out
Thanks

 

Is there a "kink" in it or is it a "wow"?

 

Good way to put it.... I like it...

 

Yeah it's more of a kink lol and yeah I like the way you worded it!

 

il6dime,
Welcome aboard. This is a great forum, and full of help too....
Good luck on your Coupester build.
I am also doing one....
Here is a picture of it now, as well as when I bought it.
Enjoy...
Cheers......

 

Nice T! I wish mine was that complete. Mine coupester is just a cut up mess lol but the coupe is all there minus doors. I can't believe how much people want for doors! Ill post pictures tomorrow of the cars and the wishbone.
Thanks

 

Search the tech archives. The last tech week had a really good thread on making doors.

 

Ok thanks I never thought about that!!
