[QUOTE="WebbsWelding, post: 348337, member: 13922"] I have repaired similar damage. The trick is to cut the toprail section out back aways from the damage . Then you are not fighting its strength. Straighten the top rail seperate from the side piece. With the top rail removed the side will go back in position much easier. The rail will require much more pressure to straighten so it can be done on a bench. get them both as straight as you can and the put the top rail back on. As far as the cuts in the rail? Well you can get them welded or live with them. Just my 2 cents, Adam Webb [/QUOTE]
