I need to get some tube bent for a rear shock mount. It's a simple u-type shape about 400 tall and around 900 wide, in mild steel 40 - 50mm dia and about 3 - 5mm wall.

Can anyone help?

i think i saw a tube bender out the front of caravan fridge repairs over past strathpine. I'm sure you could ring them and ask. They are even open saturdays.

a discription like that and you "think" you saw.
If it is only 2 bends go to an exhaust shop and get it dones.

Yeah I didn't want to go to an exhaust shop coz of the crushing on the bends their machines do. That and I dont think those machines can handle 3mm wall stuff. I could be wrong though.
