Reply to "rolling a fender"

Right you are, Husker. Any ballbat works just fine; no need for elaborate tooling. Nor-Cal rolled a few front fender lips in the parking lot after our monthly meetings using an aluminum bat 'coincidently' under someone's pickup truck front seat..... Note that only about 8-10" on each side of top center of the fender opening is needed; pretty basic stuff. The tire should be pointed straight ahead during the exercise which is described in the TSBs by Ford. Go slow and if the paint is recent and still fairly soft, it won't crack but the closer to the inside of the fender you bend back the lip, the more risk of a paint crack. With 40-yr-old enamel, or lacquer of any age you're on your own, though!
