Good question.Gotta get that rear bumper off and see what's what. How long ago was the hit?
Oi
Doing it that way you're just gonna deform or break anything salvageable to a state beyond salvage.
You've got to pull with a winch/come-along at the seams, steady pull and help with body hammers of various consistencies and shapes. Pull, hammer, pull, hammer, pull... lather rinse repeat.

He?ll just drag the car or pull something off the van. It ain?t easy pulling panels out... especially that panel with more joints than calimeatwagon
Or smash some window glass when the chain flails its mighty tentacle.
Borrow or rent a Porta power and easy it back into shape. Some hammer and dolly work and you should be good to go.
You're a brave man, I've seen 242's totalled by small QP dents that could be easily kicked out to passable.
