Rear chassis bent up! HELP!

Hi all,
My rear chassis is bent upwards due to hitting my tow bar one too many times I think, I've since removed the tow bar but cannot open my boot as the chassis and bumper has well and truly wedged it in.
Any advice on bending it back down?
I've tried a very big hammer but I'm presuming ill need heat and a method of pulling it down.
Thanks
Alex

its the rear body mounts that will have colapsed you can nock it back down with a 360 digger as thats wot i do with my offroad disco toy

Second that, the mounts. Mine has done it since a body lift.

Bumper off for inspection then I guess you need a digger

Ive had the bumper off and it's definitely bent upwards!
I guess I'll check those body mounts next
Cheers

You know its meant to bend upwards, right?

Pictures might help others to 'check' ..

... 'course, no-one will take the mickey ..

Ill take some tomorrow

is the bit bent up body colored? because thats not the chassis, its the part along the back that the mounts are attatched to, this is the only bit that i can think of that will stop your boot opening

Pics required cos either it'll be a serious DAFUQ moment or we'll all be splitting out sides laughing...

I believe some laughs are in order.







Enjoy.

Can't really tell what's happened?!

Can't open the boot as its wedged in place because the chassis has bent upward

fair bit of welding and fabrication needed there

Looks like bodymounts have collapsed. and the arse has dropped.. I suggest a big prybar on top of chassis. and under body. to try lifting it

Yeah apart from the bend in the crossmember it looked more like the body crossmember had collapsed down a bit.

I would say rear body cross member has collapsed and the body has sunk , mine has done the same and next weekend im gonna have a crack at doing it with some box section and fab up new mounts and so on, which brings me to the question- any suggestions on box section size? i have read 100x40, 100x60, 60x30 and 60x 60 as suggestions i was just wondering if anybody had any real life answers-ie has anybody actually done it and what did you use?
