From former abuse the back of my cab (48 3100) has many bumps and bruises. Quite wavy. Would a shrink disc be the best to straighten this out?

A shrinking disc is normally used after all of the old fashioned hammer and dolly work is done. It can be effective at shrinking the spots that have been stretched by damage or overworked by hammer and dolly repairs. "Quite wavy" is probably too much for a shrinking disc.

Here's a link to someone using a shrinking disc. Hopefully you can see if it's right for your job.

The rest of this guy's videos are pretty good, too.
