Saturn are having trouble getting the bars bent at the moment, lazy / awkward suppliers. I have the set that Ozzy bought from E-bay here and it does look very nice so would recommend that one.

Thinking of buying a mandrel bender, hate relying on other suppliers. These seem to be the ones to go for, JD Squared Model 32, if anybody has any experience with them or other recommendations i would appreciate it:

They just seem hard to acquire in the UK.

Rob,

I bought mine from eBay (from nicholas2528, Ozzy1's, third link: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/haynes-roll-ba...item23105041a6 (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/haynes-roll-bar-/150597550502?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item23105041a6))

Mine was more than £50 but it did include the rear stays, nuts, botls, and the rear stay fitting plates. It was well made, accurate and well packed, I would recommend him (he's ntdwm).

I think his price of £50 is good, you might get it cheaper if you wait for a group buy, but I think there has just been one.

EDIT: Opps just realised you've posted that you'd bought it, while I was writing this.

machine mart one will just crush the tube, several people have tried and failed with one of those.

You need a MASSIVE hydraulic thing that bends without fuss and gives a nice radius without reducing the inside diameter.. you gets what you pay for imo..
