Trail Master 4" Lift Question

[wizkid00104]

I picked up a Trailmaster 4" Lift last night used with Explorer leaves, add a leaf, drop pitman arm last night along with a set of 15 x 8 Outlaw 2's to clear my set of 31 x 11.5 TSL's. I noticed that the I beam drop bracket that is just a plate is ever so slightly bent. I wanted to modify it to get better articulation and make it stronger. Any tips?
