Abstract

See full text

A rub rail repair tool includes a tool engaging element disposed on one longitudinal side of a flange. A working element is disposed on the other longitudinal side of the flange. The working element is shaped to define a maximum diameter dimension and a minimum diameter dimension. The maximum diameter dimension is substantially equal to a distance between an undamaged rub rail affixed to a lateral edge of a truck bed frame. At least one tool engaging feature is formed in the tool engaging element. The tool engaging feature enables coupling of a torque arm to the tool engaging element to enable rotation thereof about a longitudinal axis thereof by applying force to the torque arm.
