does anyone know if you can buys these

need to roll my arches but want them properly done this time

car is a shell so carnt take it anywhere

i usually just use a hammer and wood but dont want to crack the paint this time

anyone know how much they are to buy or can lend me one for a day

 

The Redline boys have one matey.

 

do ou know where they got it form mate

dont supose they would lend it out lol

 

I looked into buying one of these a while ago,there about 500quid though and you need your suspension on because it bolts to the hub and you gradually turn it up and down the arch to roll it bit by bit putting extra pressure on it so it doesn't crack the paint

 

You can buy one for £99, but as mentioned you need the hubs on the car. And it alone wont stop the paint from cracking. You need to heat the paint to stop it cracking, and even then, it sometimes still does.

 

yeah car is still rolling

want to do the arches before i drop the suspension off so i can sort underneath out

then i can bolt it all back up and send it to the paint shop

 

Can you heat the arches up with a blowtorch then twat the fuck out of it?

 

Ah the old school method..

 

yeah then i will have the ripple effect and slightly wider arches

want to do it properly this time

have got away with it in the ast with hammer and wood but has cracked the paint and had only very minor mis shape

but i need this car to be spot on
