Running board braces

I have a 22 model t and it seems the running board braces are bent . End to end they measure 59 1/2 inches
These closest I can find are 26 27 measurments are 62 inches . What is the best way to bend them ? Cold or heat them up ? Would 62 inches be the correct measurment ??
Thanks joe mac
