Fenders an fender braces

May 17, 2014 //

I need new fender braces. Here I am pre-bending a brace
This is the jig I am using. The front and rear fender braces are the same material, just different lengths and shapes. This is a front fender rear brace


This is the front fender front brace

I also need what I call the fender brace clips. This is the part that the front and rear brace rivet to and the front axle goes thru.
I had a decent original right side and a broken left clip. First I made a paper template and then a sheet metal template
I made a jig with a shoulder bolt to hold the clip in place. The 1st bend is made in the vise with heat and then into the jig and heat it up again for the next bend.

This is a left side. The right side is the same shape but of course a right so is the mirror image. I added pieces to the jig so the left and right could both be made. No picture yet of the jig with both sides in it.

Here is an original and the new one
