Hey gang. I just bought this ranger and it's been in a small front end wreck. The bumper is pushed in about 1/2-3/4" on the passenger side and the whole thing is warped and pulled down nearly an inch. Is it possible to push/pull it reasonably into place? I'm ok replacing it if I need to but it's a rat-rod project now so I'm not worried about dents and a little rust either. I'd just prefer everything were reasonably aligned.

Thanks.

PS. I had wheel alignment checked and everything is ok, so I'm assuming the frame is still fine.

Edit: I would've put this thing on a tree already but the bumper metal seems really flimsy. My old Cherokee bumpers were probably three times as thick and got bent back in shape more than a few times.

Trying to get pictures up but the window closes whenever I try to insert one. It's a full chrome bumper with a standard valence.
