    Default Front wing Funk

    As you can see in the picture my Left front wing (right side of photo) has a little twist in it.
    Is is possible to unfunk it with out hurting things or drilling out all the rivits and relaying it? It seems structurally sound and I see no reason it should be in a bind.

    Please pay no attention to all the crap on the floor in the garage, it has been a long couple days/nights getting all the new body work on a fitting correctly

    Looks like the steel wingpole might have a slight tweak in it. Take the wings off and look at the pole. I've been able to straighten them enough at the track, but they end up being weak - and then I end up making a new one at home.

    Those are typically cheap round steel. I've tried aluminum, but I now make them out of steel again.

    Ive checked the bar for straitness and even lazer leveled the thru hole in the crush box and flipped ends of the bar to triple check, I think it is a twist in the cord axis?
