Bent GH/Hornet/LB/MP A-arms. Are they fix-able?

[mongoose1983]

I was wondering if there is a chance to straight out a set of bent A arms? This is for the Grasshopper/Hornet/Lunchbox/Pumpkin front arm type.

I'm talking about these ones (ref- picture, these are not mine!):

Thanks in advance, you all have a brilliant Sunday!

I think you could straighten them a bit using a heat gun, a bit of elbow grease, and some patience. It wouldn't be perfect but it's doable.

How bent are they?

Usually, once these have badly deformed you can see the stress marks where the plastic has stretched/bent. If this is a result of an impact, even if you straighten they can deform pretty easily again. If they are just warped from being stored badly etc then the below will work and if it is from an impact then it may work.They are really cheap to replace though.

Dip in boiling water for a few seconds, straighten, leave to cool then dip again and repeat can get out minor issues.
