How to Pull Out HUGE Dents Using a TREE

[@happyplantsprivategardenin9339]

I just want to thank you for this video. Someone hit me a few weeks ago and my 98 B3000 bumper is discontinued and nowhere to be found used. So I got myself a come along and tow strap and straightened out the bumper so I can drive it. It worked really well. It hit 247000 original miles this week and still purrs like a kitten. I am going to get at least another 100000. 💪😁 I am so proud!

[@Kordare]

Awesome I'm glad I could help 🙌🙌

[@dannyboy643ify]

You can use ford ranger parts

[@fernz5886]

I DID THIS SAME THING WITH THE FRONT END OF MY SUBARU BUDDY. Pulled up to a telephone pole, broke out the ratchet straps and some rope. Threw her in reverse and went to town. Loving your videos.

[@Kordare]

Haha yesss awesome🤘 thanks for the support!

[@jkwo2007]

Hi, dude Do you know your pronunciation is very clear and speaking speed is neither hurried nor too slow? So as a non native English speaker, I can understand your narrations well without the need to turn the closed captions on. Keep up good work.

[@Kordare]

I'm glad to hear that, thanks for watching!

[@kyleb5518]

That’s so wholesome

[@chrischin5491]

Pull out game is strong with this one.

[@Jeremy_Hill_2020]

I see what you did there

[@Mrprodigy7801]

Well that’s just something u don’t see everyday 😂

[@Kordare]

I dont have any body work tools but I got plenty of trees...

[@that1993mustang]

@Ahmir Clayton you got nothing better to do than copy and paste on a KZbin section?

[@thomasalgrim614]

That's how we used to do it before I started working at a body shop. Spot weld dent puller and you can get rest out. You have the right idea with welding I bolt on. Next time on a pinch weld vise grip with a chain loop weld on top.

[@Kordare]

Thanks for the tips! As you could see this was my first time trying to do any of this.

[@nathanmciver6496]

Blue? Ummmm no!!! Yup! Black shirt! Using a tree is brilliant! I love watching repairs!

[@Kordare]

🤘🤘

[@JerzeyBoy]

That's how my grandfather did it when his frame puller broke down. I remember helping him do something like this on a ford explorer 6 or 7 years ago.

[@Kordare]

I was surprised how well it worked

[@briancorrigan5350]

pull pull pull tappy tappy tap tap. Coaxing the creases out with a hammer, block of wood, dull chisel, a small hunk of metal, your hands, foe's head, use your imatgination...while aplying pulling pressure will help tremendously. Hats off to your roadside "get 'er done" method. Next you'll be frame welding with jumper cables, a car battery and a coat hanger. Even if you plan to cut it out and replace it, it's always a good idea to pull on the damaged bits to get things roughly pointed in the right direction so the new parts fit up that much easier. Thanks.

[@kceegray7046]

I got my come along hooked up onto the old walnut tree and this 07 X3 I got for a steal with similar rear end damage, essentially the same idea I had haha. The only thing i didnt try was to pull it sideways how you got it like this. Thats probavly also helping the leverage of that come along because wheels not slipping back. Good job man. Thanks

[@stukkak1976]

Always use more anchor points. It spreads the load and wont rip through the metal.

[@pfkmsandiego]

makes sense. how do u attach multiple anchors that can be evenly pulled tho?

[@timothykeith1367]

You can use multiple bolts through a backing plate so the pressure is applied on a wider area and the sheet metal doesn't tear.

[@mar-coustech7215]

Love this channel. I found it through your big tire mustang vids.

[@Kordare]

Thanks🤘 Bigger better things to come!

[@3vFrank]

just curious man what do you do for a living to afford such cool ass stuff at a young age?

[@Kordare]

I'm a mechanical engineer. But really it's just a matter of being good at saving and not buying dumb stuff.

[@THESMOOVEGAMER]

Kordare my problem exactly 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@Scratchingforcash]

Not bad, I think you can buy an aftermarket quarter panel online and weld it on after you cut the old one off if you really wanted to put that much effort into it.

[@jennifer80516]

Exactly what I've been planning on doing and macgyvering in my head and bought everything today, then found your video. I've had 3 body shops give me the run around, oh blah blah, it isn't worth it, we can't fix it without replacing the entire end of the car, blah, blah, blah, just because I'm a short 60 year old female with gray hair. I'm over it! Just waiting for State Farm to send me the official notice they are totaling my car. 2007 Toyota Highlander Hybrid, 225k miles, drives fine, lights work, but the body shop gave me an estimate of $10,145. I bought a come along, a variety of really thick metal plates (like pergola T brackets, support bracing with holes in them to put behind the crush part to help reinforce the metal and spread the pulling action over a wider area. Got a complete dufus at Lowe's telling me a screw is a screw and there is nothing different about them, even when their own damn sign explains the difference right there. He couldn't even get his manager to bother to come over when I need to reattach a bracket that was welded to the back for the metal bumper to attach to. I got some self tapping screws, metal drill bits that will go through stainless or I-beams, other grade 8 bolts with lock nuts, so I have a variety ready to go when I get started. I'm going to use my Ford F350 instead of a tree and hopefully that will be heavy enough on both ends. I should be able to pull the crushed part out enough to get the old scratched up bumper cover back on as I do have all the absorber parts I picked up out of the street that go between that and the metal bumper. That which will cover all that damage anyway, then grab the salvage title, get the CO State Patrol inspection, and get the rebuild title so I'm good to go. I can probably get another 50k - 100k out of my car, zero reason to let them send it to the junk yard. Supposedly I'll get retail value minus auction value and my deductible. I think my total cost to fix it myself as a 60 year old female who also doesn't know what she is going will be < $200.

[@andyshouseofgears4902]

I've used a 87 Toyota pickup to pull a frame rail on a 84 mustang gt lol!

[@Kordare]

Haha awesome!

[@historiayleynatural8865]

I would recommend a Farm Jack to do that, and very useful for other things too.

[@StepLucch]

Make sure you put whatever the weak link in your setup is closest to your car, or if you have to put a knot in a sling and have that on your car side. That way if it breaks it all goes towards the tree instead of towards your car

[@Showing_the_car_]

Yeah...but you'd be standing by the tree... and mashed gonads would be much worse than another dent in an already dented car. 😁

[@davidgarcia-mo4ob]

wow not bad , thanks going to get dent out of my truck dent not as bad as the one you pulled out , was not sure it would work till i seen your video

[@Kordare]

Good luck 🤘

[@TheKillsnot]

Did this on a 02 bmw 325ci. Took some time but came along pretty nicely and got it straighten out. Good video and hope to see more.

[@Kordare]

That's great, yeah my goal wasn't to get it perfect obviously, but it did the job.

[@robanderson84]

good job figuring out pulling, i would suggest a tree strap about 6 foot long, or called a lifting sling. get one with 2 eyes and a shackle, about 6 foot long, 2 inches wide, can get double thickness, to wrap around trees, it won't slip off and hurt you or car or others, is very secure compared to ratchet strap method, same looking yellow strapping though. I have about 20 i have found on amazon around 5-10 bucks, much safer

[@Kordare]

I appreciate the advice, thanks!

bro, buy the 5 ton pulling clamp off ebay, it's the best 30 bucks you'll ever spend. You just tighten the pinch clamp onto the seems and pull... literally no damage or sheetmetal tears unless you get crazy silly with it.

I incurred same damage on 9/11/21, twentieth anniversary of THEE "9/11" on the Pasadena Fwy in L.A. to my 1982 MBZ 300TD (123 model)...Luckily no damage to drive train/runs fine.. Some say pull it out. Others say cut it away and re-whole quarter panel it.. Well, cutting away a panel at a 'Pick A Part' alone costs $$ and I certainly ain't equipped to do it myself... One gentleman said he could pull it / do whole job for $1,100.00 /12 days. Another wants $1,200.00. I know these are good prices.. Yet I've no way to get around unless I bicycle, Lyft, or rent a car here and there for the stretch (pun intended !).. Maybe my medical covers this type of transportation need...Hmmmmmm... Anyway, nice job Kordare !! I should try that !! Then have body guy complete it a day at a time so I can have it to drive near every day....But I bet that ain't gonna fly with any of them !!

[@Kordare]

Good luck!

[@timothykeith1367]

I used a cordless reciprocating saw to remove a minivan quarter panel at a Pick-N-Pull. Cost was $100. Most of it cut like butter, I used about 3 blades. I cut away part of the floor and also the roof and got the inner bracing.
