Anyone have a bead roller around? I need to make a custom little pipe, I dont have the vehicle in front of me, so I'm going by memory - but basically, I have a 2" header pipe, and a 2.25 bike canister (muffler)
Th pipe will need to be ~4" long, with one end sliced so that I can clamp it to the header, and the other end I will need flared up to 2.25" and then bead rolled, but the bead will need to be set i about 1" from the end. This way the muffler will slide over the pipe and butt up against the bead. From there I will weld 2 small loop hooks, and a spring on either side - pulls the canister in against the bead.
Heres a quick pic I made,

Anyone help me make something like that?
