Hello all, I’m new here and have come up with an issue with my 1994 f250. Recently got in a wreck and messed up my front end including my bumper. Well I’m trying to fix it all myself so I pulled the oem steel bumper because it got pushed back And was rubbing on my left wheel while turning right. After getting it off I noticed where the brackets on the bumper bolt onto the frame, the bracket attached to the frame on the left side has been bent back about an inch or too. Do I need to get a new bracket welded onto the frame? Can it be bent back? And if possible how could I do that. Also looking like in the replacement process may go after market with a bigger bumper/ grill guard if anyone has any suggestions on that. Thanks!
Take about a 15 inch crescent(adjustable) wrench and possibly a couple short pieces of strap iron, so you don't bend the piece wavy, and it should easily bend back. Kind of push toward the frame when bending so as not to break the weld(not sure how well it's welded).

Place it up and down over the full length of the piece you are bending. Probably at least 3/16 inch thick. Put the wrench outside of the strap iron and half way between top and bottom of the piece you are bending. This will keep from putting waves in the piece you are bending.
