<p>A pulling tool which comprises a pulling bar which, in a simple form, comprises an L-shaped length of tool steel r o d and a pulling hook which comprises a length of tool steel rod having a hook formed in one end thereof for hooking the pulling hook with one leg of the pulling bar. The opposite end of the pulling hook can be adapted to have coupling means affixed to it for pulling on the pulling hook. To use the pulling tool, two holes are drilled in the body of the vehicle in the damaged area, and in spaced apart relationship. One leg of the L-shaped pulling bar is inserted through one of the holes, and the pulling bar is manipulated so that the leg extended through the hole extends substantially parallel with the surface contour of the body of the vehicle, and so as to project towards the second hole drilled in the body. The hook on the pulling hook then is extended through the other hole formed in the body of the vehicle and hooked with the leg of the pulling bar. In this fashion, a pulling force can be exerted on the body of the vehicle to repair the damaged area thereof by pulling on one or both of the pulling hook and the pulling bar. The need to remove any body panels to gain access to the back side of the body to secure the pulling tool to the body therefore is eliminated. Also, both the pulling bar and the pulling hook are formed in a manner such as to prevent the formation of a dimple in the body, upon exerting a pulling force on the pulling tool to remove the dent from the body.</p> |
