im looking to get a the JD2 tube bender very soon, how ever i dont know what the numbers with the dies mean, i know the size it bends and thats about it, i guess a 90 degree die will only bend to 90 degrees, right? im going to be making stingers, rock sliders and tube fenders using 1.5 hrew. What would be a good die? thanks

get the 180 deg die. trust me. the other number is the clr. center line radius is how tight a bend it will make. although i have various dies, i use the 1.5 with the 5.5 clr the most. if you buy used, dont buy a die thats rusty or pitted
