How would you go about fixing this?

The very end of the rear frame rails are bent in. On both sides. Dimpled.



Its location and that I don't want to take off the running board supports makes the 'turn it sideways and bang it until it's straight' a bit difficult.

On the drivers side I put the torch to it, with a big plate on the outside and tried using a big C clamp to slowly draw it flat. It got better, but not what I'd call straight.

Just looking for some other ideas.
