madsledhead 07-30-2002, 12:13 PM Hello all, Looking for someone who can remove a dent from my center pipe. Anyone know of such service in the Ontario or Quebec area? Don't ask, Just bad luck. revrnd 07-30-2002, 12:29 PM Someone skilled in working with sheet metal should be able to do it. 1)Make a scribed line along the length of the pipe. This is to line up the 2 halves afterwards for welding. 2)Cut the pipe thru the dent. 3)Hammer out the dent on each half. 4)As you hammer out the dent, compare each half 5)When the halves match, you can weld them back together. mr670 07-30-2002, 12:54 PM Hi there madsledhead, Bondi Engines in Aurora Ont does pipe repairs, or try this, seal the pipe ends up, presurize the pipe with air (125+ psi) heat up the dented area red hot with a little taping with a small hammer it should pop out, good luck. madsledhead 07-30-2002, 01:21 PM Thanks, I do not want to do it myself because I heard it's cheap to do. Aurora is darn far away, do you know of anybody in the Ottawa region? revrnd 07-30-2002, 02:31 PM Maybe a body shop could fix it with a dent puller? studboy 07-30-2002, 09:35 PM i had mine done at a exhaust shop and they cut the dent out and patched over it with another piece. it works and looks good to. it costed me $20. this should help ya hauler 07-31-2002, 01:22 AM Jaws Performance, he can do anyting you want with pipes.
