i've got a set of used longarms that i bought and 2 of the arms are slightly bent and i was wondering if it would be worth the time to heat them up to straighten them, and if so would you take the bushings out to do it or just leave them in since the bends arent close to to the ends of the arms.

2 bent arms are in the middle
 
Don't heat them.
 
how do you suggest to bend them then, theyre 1/4" - 1/2" difference in length
 
bent arms

if you heat thim up enough to bend the arms they well greatly loose its strength.you going to have to ether buy a new set or makes you a new piece and just weld the old ends on.
 
Looks like its already sleeved. Cut before the sleeve, and cut when it straightens out then sleeve it again.
 
Yeah your correct the previous owner of the kit extended the rear arms, which are both now bent
