    By tube bender do you mean pipe bender? Because I don't think HB makes a tube bender and you can't bend tube with a pipe bender. Or are you going to make the bumper out of pipe?

    Swag Off-Road has some adapters for the pipe bender to bend tube.

    Edit, it appears that's only for the tube roller.

    That's what meant to type lol. The tube roller would let bend tube correct? For 180 bucks it's hard to beat.

    Pipe bender:

    Tube roller:

    Roller makes very large radius bends, and probably not what you want for a rear bumper.

    I've had my eye on this guy for a while. Someday:

    That's a nice bender!! I saw some manual benders out there. I'm sure I could probably use those since I'm not interested in anything over 1.5. I've got the grunt to bend it but I know it would be nice to add a hydro mod to it later. I also saw jd squared out there and it was a decent price as well.

    The manual benders require bolting to something unmovable, so that is a killer for me. I also already have that ram sitting in my garage. Swag offers a manual to hydro setup for those common manual benders, but I think I rather just have the Rogue.

    I have a table that could take that kind of force. I just couldn't bend in a horizontal direction. It would have to be vertical force since I can't bolt anything to the floor.

    Yeah, and those aren't really designed to be mounted vertically.

    If I end up buying one this summer, you are welcome to come by and use it. Just gift me some scrap tube and buy me lunch.

    A little bit of progress. I was hoping my other two pieces would come in the mail so I could finish both but I was able to finish one anyway.













    This thing is really stout. There's no doubt in my mind that I could recover off of this piece lol.
