Gas tank dent followup

Posted by Zachary Hoyt on January 12, 2013 at 09:27:23 from (184.10.236.70):

Here was my method:
Step 1. Find a pair of Vise Grip brand locking pliers and lock them onto the tank.
Step 2. Find a log chain with a clevis hook big enough to fit the Vise Grip brand locking pliers and slide it on.
Step 3. Find a longer chain with 2 hooks on it and hook one end to the first chain and the other end around the axle housing of the other C.
Step 4. Push the other C backward sharply by pushing on the top of the left rear tire.
It only took one push to pop most of the dent out and then I hooked the pliers up a bit further forward and did it again. It is not perfect but it is good enough for now. Thank you all for your advice.
Zach
