View Full Version : Bending services
Is there anyone out there that would do like 8 bends for me? I am rebuilding the trailer I bought from happick and I want to make new fenders for it. I dont want to spend a fortune so I am going to go with some SCH 40 pipe from home depot. Just dont have a bender.
I'll gladly pay for your service or buy beer whatever you want.

i have a HF tube bender you could borrow
Same here...unless you want to buy the poop pipe die.
What size pipe are you using? I have to make new fenders for my happick-owned trailer as well. I sense a pattern....

What will all that sch40 cost?
How about this. You use jr channel and make a little pie shape cut then bend it and now you have drive over fenders. I called blvd sales, they only sell 20' lengths and cost about 180 from what I remember. Thats about what a new pair of fenders from tcs will cost.

That is basically what the trailer has now, and they are drive-over ready. Just paint it and get wheeling!

If your still in Middletown, I also have a HF one you can grab.
My project is in Middletown. I will have to do some pricing/thinking about what I want to do for fenders and let you know.

What was wrong with the ones on there?

Nothing really. They were functional. Welds sucked though. I can tell you that they weigh a metric fawking ton. :dan1:
The one on the right side was barely holding on FYI. I cut one weld and almost took off a toe because I didnt expect it to fall off.

Isn't there non-functional stuff on your jeep you should be fixing instead?!

Grind, re-weld, paint! GO WHEELING!
I like your attempt at motivation. Really I do. I am just finally getting settled after getting back from AZ. I had to move, I got the Tundra sold, the F250 bought, trailer is nearly done now, the VW needs a couple things, as does the truck. Once all that shit is done I can put in a little time on the Jeep and get out on the trail this year. Hopefully :lol:
The YJ doesnt need much to just beat the piss out of it, but it does need a few things like seat and harness tabs that are keeping me from taking it out right now. Needs a stereo too :lol:

Overrated. I've not even turned mine on in the last two trips out. I guess I should to see if it still works.
