I'm trying to find someone locally that can manderally bend two pipes for me and I can't. I dont really want to buy two different bends and weld it together. I need 2 2.5" pipes that have two 45 degree angles in it. Thats it. If someone could do this, I'd be willing to pay you for doing it and for shipping. Thanks------------------

For what it's worth, after discovering that not a single auto shop in the entire Philippines owns a mandrel bender, I was told that some deep drilling companies use them. Also, I'm told, companies that install piping in plants.
There might be one in your town and you don't even know it.

There is a Westins Manufacturing plant in town, but they won't do it. I know some guys on the inside that run the machines and they said that the formans stand and watch them at all times. I can get step bars or grill guards that are defective, but they are all 3" and the bends are always 90 degrees. I'm hoping someone on this forum has access to something like that but are able to do a couple bends quick.------------------

You can buy ready bent pipes from several sources, try maybe Speedway Motors in Nebraska , these are 3" and 3 1/2" but there may be others under the street rod sectionhttp://www.speedwaymotors.com/xq/asp/strBase_List./hilt./source.2191/base_no.9173045/str_base_no.91714250LV%2C91714260LV%2C91714270LVG%2C917146%2C917151%2C917155V%2C91716168%2C9171 61V%2C917162%2C917166%2C9171801%2C917184V%2C917186%2C9172530%2C9173045%2C917361%2C9173801%2C917462%2C917562%2C91773546%2C/header_title.Race+Products%2DHeaders+%26+Exhaust/page_name .prod%5Flist%5Fdisplay%2Easp/search_type.L1%7E44/search_option./deptsearch./deptSearch_id./dept_id./dept_id_p.2/dept_name./dept_name_p./ShowImages.yes/sq.40/cont.1/intPgNo.3/redire ct./qx/product.htm (just type that all in, LOL)
