Have straightened many a shock over the years. It can be done successfully

If you can’t get it straight, you can usually replace just the shaft.

I would call Carver Performance, have the numbers off the shock handy, and see what availability is on a shaft. If it's available should be about $50 and probably $60-75 to have them change it. If the shaft is a long lead item then try to find a replacement shock.
