PLEASE NOTE THE FIVE WASHERS ABOVE THE TOOL
READ THIS AND FOLLOW IT!!!
When attaching the tool to the hub, make sure you use included dished washers between the lug/nut and the tool. If you do NOT, you will damage the face of the tool and be penalized for any repair cost in repairing the face of the tool. The washers come on the handle of the tool. One end of the handle unscrews so you can remove them."

As I would rather not follow the trends of other companies who rent these
($50-$75 rental fee + $300-$500 deposit + insured shipping both
ways…ouch!), we will be observing something of an “honor system”. If you
receive the tools and either is damaged, contact me If you damage the tools (it’s tough to do), contact me…you break it, you fix/replace it, but no worries, the tool is really tough and almost all steel so it will be obvious if it was damaged via shipping or by the user.

Below is a disclaimer. By renting the tool set, you acknowledge having read and agreed to the rules and release us of any liability related to use of the tool. No big deal, but I have to cover my six.

Ok, let’s break it down…if you want to rent it this is what will happen.

  1. Post Here to be added to the list.
  2. I will contact you when it is your turn to receive the tool.
  3. You will pay me the $40 rental fee.
  4. You will receive the tool in person. Inspect it upon arrival and
  5. Use the tool [like I had to tell you that part]…in a timely manner.
  6. Let me know you’re done with it and I will meet up with you
  7. You’re happy. You have big fat tires that don’t rub.

What to expect…

Here are some basic instructions:

Additional Tools Required:
The following items should be present and in proper operating condition to conduct the fender rolling operation:
• Floor Jack
• Jack Stands
• Manual lug wrench for wheel lugs

Instructions for Use:

  1. Raise and support either entire vehicle or vehicle corner on which fender rolling operation is to occur.

  2. Remove wheel and place hub flange portion of the Fender Roller over wheel lugs. Place the dished washers (included) onto the wheel lugs. Use wheel nuts to hold tool in place; tighten snugly.

  3. Loosen the handwheel located on the arm of the tool and adjust the arm length until the Fender Roller wheel is centered on the inner fender lip. Tighten the handwheel.

  4. Using the release lever, adjust the roller angle to match the desired shape that the inner lip will be formed.

  5. Adjust the pressure bar to apply gentle pressure to the formed lip.

  6. Use a heat gun to gently warm the paint in the area to be rolled (to prevent cracking).

  7. Grasp the tool firmly and repeatedly swing it in an arc across the inner fender lip to form the desired shape. It will be necessary to adjust the pressure bar to keep constant pressure on the lip during the operation. If the wheel arch radius is varying, it may be necessary to form the lip on small sections at one time, readjusting for each section radius.

id love to roll my fenders but with rust I have a feeling it won’t work good :frowning:

I will be needing mine done but I am NOT confident in my abilities to do this. I would be interested in paying to have someone who knows what they’re doing. PM’ me if you’d be interested. In fact if someone if looking at renting this I would pay the rental fee/and pay for a case beer or whatever you’d like to do mine as well.
