Had to straighten a set of forks tonight, I usually shove them in the chain hooks on the side on my truck hitch receiver. These forks were too narrow.

Cast iron street drain cover has horizontal slots that fit a set of forks very nicely. I wedged a scrap of carpet between the fork and the drain to keep from denting it. Used a floor jack handle on the steer tube. 5-minute job including the time to cut the carpet scrap.

Check your street drain, or find one close. Ready to go stable fixture to bend what you need.
