how to fix bumper bracket and frame mounts?

I rear ended a truck last week and squashed the front end of my D1. I got everything apart and I think I am going to use my tractor to pull the bent metal back into shape. Anybody have any better ideas? I thought about using a torch, but I don't know where the air bag sensors are. Any advise would be appreciated. I did buy another LR for $500 for parts.

Here are some pictures:

Saw your photos. I think a torch is going to be required to pull it out, then some reinforcing metal to strengthen it again. I'd strip the front all the way down first. But that's just my red neck side thinking about how to.

use a winch instead of a tractor- guess how I know ;-) You may have to anchor each vehicle, but you will have much greater control...
