There are various ways. -Hand shaping with a metal file -Using a drill to shape the top part -Putting the hanger in the place where the drill bit is supposed to go. Use a file until the desired shape is achieve (I found out about this from Xi(?)) |

I shaped them with a hand file and some high grit sand paper. Took maybe 30 mins on each truck. So worth it! |
