Any ideas on straightening my unibody? Not paying high dollar to fix it since its a trail rig now. Like this on both sides.

What I figured, so strap and not chain? And how should I attach it to the unibody?

Solid point. As far outside the bend as possible. Straps so you don't hurt the tree. Chain doesn't flex and would work better.
