Re: Straightening front bed panel
Well you can't really hurt it unless you put and extra bend in it.
I'd say lay it on the shop floor or flat surface and lay a 2x6 or 2x8 that was longer than it is wide across it and stand or jump on the plank . You may have to stick it under something like a higher off the ground late model truck and use a jack on top of the plank to put more weight on it. I think I'd support the ends to push the middle down.
