Default vinson 500 a arm bracket

i have an 03 vinson 500 with 1000km on it, and i bought it with the front a-arm bracket bent on the front right side. and its the rear bracket. so basically the botom of the wheel is bowing in. how would a person go about fixing this? do i pull it all apart and then bend it and reinforce it with a weld around it again? any help wil be much appreciated

My buddy wrecked his Vinson with only 35 miles on it and it bent in the same place. He took it to the dealer to be fixed. They replaced the lower a-arm and the steering knuckle and charged him over $500. We went to pick it up and the wheel was still way off. I took it home to my place. I cut the old a-arm at the back bar and added a steel rod that fit inside of it. Adjusted it to where the wheel sat striaght and welded it up. You cant tell it was ever wrecked. He has been ridding it hard for 5 years.
