Bed brace bent?

Hello! Before I put this '87 bed on my '73 3/4 ton, the bed was resting directly on the ground with its weight "correct-side-up" instead of on the sturdier top rails. I think the braces might have bent while it sat for several months. Can anyone tell by looking at this lower photo if they are bent? If they are, what would be the best method to bend both lower sides of the bed down without leaving a crease all along the lower portion of the bed? If the braces are bent what is the best way to bend them back or is it best to just replace them?

Thanks!
