I was wondering if anyone else has bent the frame for the steering post on a raptor.....more importantly how to straighten it back out with out creasing the metal or any helpful ideas. Thanks

do you mean lower a-arm

if its not bent too bad,,,,be sure the wheel allignment is straight,,,,and run it

if its bent real bad replace it

i have bent them back with a portapower before ,,,but it will only weaken it further,,,,,meaning yu should brobably just replace it

you can rent a portapower cheap if you dont have to ben it too far (like a small jaws of life) (hydraulic)

no im not talking about the a-arm its where your steering post runs down in front of your gas tank and bolts to the frame. There's 2 little angles running off the frame that it bolts to and that is what is bent .................
