I have a Farmall H rim with small dents along the outside of the rim from rubbing against rocks.

Is there easy way to remove the dents before sandblasting and painting the rim?

(1) Lay the edge of the rim on a flat steel surface and use the peen side of a ball peen hammer.(2) Use a large adjustable wrench with the jaws open just far enough to slide over the rim and pry the dents back into shape.(3) Use an acetylene torch to heat the area and lightly hammer it back into shape. (4) Use lots of elbow grease and patience! :-)
