Straightening the Stabilizer bar/set

I haven't flown my Esky Hunter in a while. I hate having to order a new stabilizer set after almost every crash. Usually a bent stabilizer bar causes vibrations on the heli. Does anybody have any tips for straightening these out and re-using them?

A table clamp or bench vice helps. Nice pair of pliers should do the trick. Then roll the stabilizer on something flat to check for runout.

Yep that's just what I'd do then roll it on a flat surface to check it's true
