Rear end shock mount

[strikk]

Hey guys, I noticed my truck sagging to one side the other day while it was in the lot. Looking around I find that the driver side shock mount is bend 45 degrees away from center.

I'm thinking of just prying this thing as straight as possible - smart or stupid?

That ain't good! 'If' you can bend it back, & it doesn't break, more than likely it wouldn't take much or be long before it will bend again. Probably have to weld up a brace or two on the sides of the mount.
Something hit that pretty hard to bend it like that!

Yeah I would weld up a couple of braces like sewlow said. Bending it back wouldent do no justice

Yeah make it straight and weld in a couple of gusset's and you will be good!
