i bent my lca mounts.
took them to the shop, heated them up, bent them back.
i put the skid row lca mount skids on them.

is it possible to re bend them?
should i weld a flat peice of metel on them, WITH the lca mount skids?
or will these solve/help it?

how does this happen anyway?

I welded plates on the bottom of mine after I bent one of them. I haven't bent them since.

Weld the factory brackets on the inside. Weld a plate over the LCA mounts, something along these lines: http://www.currieenterprises.com/cestore/product.aspx?id=2374

Then sell those ridiculous bolt-on LCA skids and recoop the wasted cash. $.02.
