Can i get my car chassis pulled?

my cars chassis is bent right where the front passenger side control arm is connected to.(the control arm is right on top of it). its bent downward towards the ground and also a little bit in towards the car and this caused the front right part of the cars chassis to get pulled back a little, which is causing the traction rod/tension strut/whatever u wanna call it to push the control arm back and the whole assembly is sitting too far back in the wheel well. does anyone know if this type of damage can be pulled or bent back by a shop?

this happened because the car under steered and i hit a curb on the right side. the control arm needs to be replaced because the bushing is destroyed and the whole thing is bent slightly

so im wondering if it can be bent back, thanks!

    It can probably be straightened, but you need to take to a body shop with real frame equipment so they can set it up, measure, and pull it back like it was.

    Then you get the new parts bolted on, and an alignment.

    Using a chassis frame straightener it could be done but costs are to much. If I were to suggest using a come-along to crank it until from is back in right position while tying off one side to a tree and just put the emergency break on. Much cheaper and works pretty good as that is what some shade tree mechanics would do.
