bending look brakes is a bitch. my suggestion is to take the brake off, put it in a vise, get the arms completely straight, and then bend again where you want the new width to be. either that or pony up $40 for fat brakes.

and you can mount without the lifters, you just need shorter screws.

They will bend as far as you want them to if you use a torch and vise. they might not retract all the way to your ski but the'll be close so who care's.

I have same prob. I tried bending but it is hard because they are round (easy to twist while bending and hard for vise or you to hang on.) I think I am gonna sack up and just buy wide brakes from jibij for 30. I haven't found them cheaper than at jibij and the mount is only like 15.

just buy wider brakes. I don't see why you'd bend them if they make wider ones.

here's how i bend breaks... i have this broken pole with a handle on it and i put the brake in a vise and i put the break in the broken pole hole and bend it. it works great. if its 90mm waist, you should have no problem bending it like that without even having to use a torch.
