  • Tool to nock steel rims into shape

    I am looking to buy a tool I once saw that is a cross between a panel beaters dolly and a a chisel. It has a moon or arch head that allows a dented rim to be knocked back into shape. I have no idea what it's called though to search for one. Any idea?

    No sorry, but I'd recommend getting a specialist for the wheel str8tening.
    I had 2 done recently $65 ea, bloody good job, not worth trying I think.

    Or you can heat it & use a bottle jack if you insist.

      Any of these float your boat? Alternatively use a scutchcomb.

        They would be my recommendation MLC.
        Just enquire about the service, cost and finish colour matching to yours.
