How the heck do I repair or replace these lower pins on the mounting bracket? The pins don’t actually look bent but maybe the bracket is. If that’s the case, then what???

Just cut them off and install new shock mounts. The top can also be replaced with new mounts to make the shocks loop-loop, the pin-loop shocks seem to always break anyways.
