LoL do a lil more looking around not only does he look like him but he drives the same car!

Awesome first post, .

FS: DOHC KA24DE Timing Chain Kit, OEM(yes real Nissan) Brand-New! eMail me.

im trying to do the rears right now, but i think the car is too low cuz the roller goes right over the lip. is there a way to get the roller lower?

Besides raise the car, or removing the coilover and supporting the suspension/spindle with a jack or something, you're pretty much sunk.

disconnect the coilovers from the strut tower (or from the bottom perch) & support the bottom w/ a jack. Works like a charm. If you still need more clearance, you can disconnect the sway bar, etc.

oops, didn't see your 2nd paragraph. Still a lil buzzin from the party, haha.

thanks

To just roll fenders, shops charge anywhere between 50-80, flaring is more obviously. Some of them also dont' care about your paint or getting things done smoothly, etc.

You can buy just the roller for around 300, more or less. Then add in heat gun if you want, etc.

I'll do it for a decent price since you are in So Cal , email me if interested. I charge more than some shops, but I go to your house & I do better work... imho.

and that price is sic!

Why has not so many other people done this? does it require extra support to the fender while doing the pull in order to not bend the entire fender out?

help me

Would like to get a hold of the pics myself too. I'll host it if I have to =(

I'm trying to fit 255/40/17 17x9+17 front and rear... i've seen people even fit 17x9+15 with 255s same setup... even lower offset like wth... and they make it nice and flush...

I didn't even finish.. i was on driver rear... I really need help...

I got a heatgun that can go up to 560 degrees or something... eastwood fender roller and a mallet hammer or whatever it's called...

I saw the pix on here and WOAH its REALLY flared out outwards... i need to make this happen.. whats the frickin trick lol..

I'm in Canada.. car is up on a hoist right now... I need to flare her out Rolling I managed like what... 10mm wider?... not enough... still need another like 20mm widening to make the tires fit.. plus i plan to lower her a bit more... should be flush when all is done... but.. need urgently advice

and the time is getting ever closer for needing to roll my fenders out, itll be a blast.

and HOORAY FOR VISIBLE PICTURES!

You could try it out, but on "the other forum", one of the guys bought it & the roller head pooped out really quick - he ended up using a hybrid of the eastwood roller head & the PBM body.

For lowered vehicles, all you really have to do is disconnect the coilover & support the arm by a jack - just make sure you have the same height relatively on both sides.

like, one side pulled more than the other.

If you are going to do it yourself, I actually recommend dropping the strut on both sides before starting & supporting both sides w/ jacks.

One of the things I've noticed when pulling fenders is that the hubs don't sit perfectly even with each other (one side has always been lower than the other - at least in the few cars I've done). One way to check instead of eyeballing is to take a measuring tape out and check from ground -> hub & hub -> top of wheel well.

Another factor that goes into that is the alignment setting - if your toe is off, or camber is different from one side to the other (usually is), that will also affect your pull.

For the most part, it doesn't matter if you aren't pulling a ridiculous amount - and if you look closely at cars with pulled fenders, they aren't usually even on both sides; no one's going to be running back and forth and saying "hey, your flared fender is 5mm diff on this side).

Good luck!

I don't roll random fenders anymore, too much time for the money. You're better off renting a fender roller locally.
