I have this subframe that I need to repair.. as someone's fitted a tow hook in the wrong place!

Anyone got an pointers on how to do this in a way that wont acrew up alignment etc. ?

Would heating up the rear beam before straightening it, be of much help?

Should I weld on same braces to keep it square?

Many thanks!

Get some angle iron the right size and use (big) G clamps to squeeze the member back to shape.
