My truck had the "chain drug" bent xmember too. Maybe someone won a Darwin award by using the old C10 to remove a dead oak tree out of the front yard. It didn't hurt anything, but just looked shabby. I took a small sledge to it, but the metal was stretched and didn't satisfy me. I found a piece of rectangle tube that I reworked for a replacement. It took a little work, but looks good and works fine. My trailer hitch receiver also ties into it for support.
