Hi, Can you put up a photo this will help to provide a solution.

Warm it up till its red. They bend back easy peasy then.

I'm curious Hedd - how would you go about getting it that hot? Over full length? Or just locally...?

RE: Getting back to it and straightening a bent chassis - Hedd Jones - 15-05-2018

Depends. Presumably is its distorted after welding. Its olny bent there. Propane and oxygen and a big rose

Dear all,

Thanks for further suggestions.  As Hedd suggests, I think the bend is over a relatively short length.  I'll ascertain that with a straight edge.  I'll also try to remember to get a picture this weekend (so you can all have good laugh Big Grin) 

Thanks!
