I have a quick question. The bar behind the front bumper that goes across under the radiator where the oil cooler lines run across, how important is that bar? Because en-route of us pulling my fc home, it got bent, and i was wondering if it was important, because if its not necessary i was planning on cutting it off anyway.......

That's a fairly important structural member of the front end. Without it, the frame rails will want to move inward.

Straighten it out...

And don't use it to tow the car, it's not designed for that.

Yea, i didnt realize that until it was too late..... so i guess just straighten it out the best i can. one of the welded ends was pulled off during that process, but i see that there are holes that are possibly for bolts. Could i just bolt it back to the frame, or would i have to re-weld it?

After what happened might want to take it to a body shop to make sure everything is right, there is a chance you bent tje frame.

Alright then. i hope it's not anything serious. i guess while the engine is out i'll tow is somewhere and have them check out the frame. I appreciate the input and help.
