This is the bend I am talking about. If it is over bent and you clamp it, it will bow the top out. If you unclamp it and the top comes back in to where it should be, I would try gently massaging the lower bend, but it needs to be done before you start welding. It may take numerous tries.

Most women like the strong, silent type… Fortunately for me, my wife prefers the out-of-shape, mouthy type.
