    Anyone around the St. Louis area know of a place that can do a 1/2" radius seam roll on 16,18 or 20 ga rolled steel? Rougly 36" wide (the width of the door). I can't seem to find anyone/sheetmetal fab that has the tools for this.......
    I'm replacing my meyer door skin and would like for it to be as close to stock as possible. I guess I could just brake a "V" into it but again I'd like it to be as close to original as possible...
    Thanks in Advance!. :beer::beer:

    no idea but... if you take that Harbor Freight coupon and check out their rollers, others may be coming to you for the same service:)

    I have thought and looked into that.. but the biggest one they have only has a 12" deep throat.. not quite enough reach..... I on the other had will likely be picking up one of their 36" brakes though....

    This would be a long shot but you might try Steelweld Equipment in St. Clair. They manufacture service bodies for AT&T and Verizon and have a neat factory. Take I 44 west to the Hwy 47 exit. Continue west on the outer road and it is about 1/2 mile on the right.

    The only contact I have there is Steve. I would recommend walking in the front door. They may give you an easy NO over the phone.

    Expect to pay since this will be a custom fab for them.
