you can do that as well. And you will need to know this to save yourself time and effort later.

The second link is a sticky post entitled read before posting. If you would have done so, you would have posted this in the right area.
Next time, post something like this in cherokee chat or advanced tech.
To answer your question, you can just drill the holes in the crossbar. if you try to flatten it, you will snap the things connecting it to the jeep. The bend is fine, and you can just go from there.
