ha! i slammed into a curb and cracked my stock alloy rim and bent my entire rack and pinion system, but somehow everything else (strut and control arm) is okay. but racks are expensive when you're poor! lol.

Ya I hit a curb pretty hard before winter hit and it cost me 2000 to get the struts and all that fixed. plus my rim got messed up and ive been trying to find one but cant get one for less than like 300. it sucks. hope you have better luck

i mean the crossmember..... the big a$$ piece that connects to the suspension arms and lower control arms, its the biggest piece down there, not the sway bar....
i bent the supsension arm crossmember junction area......
there are 2 arms that connect to the knuckle assembly and go in towards the center of the crossmember. the one closest to the rear is the lower control arm and the other is the suspension arm, and the trailing arm goes towards the front of the car

so i replaced my crossmember and suspension arm and that fixed the camber problem a lil..... i think i need to get a new strut. i dented the backside of the strut and housing by way of the sway bar and there is also a lil gap in between the strut and housing on the front side.... i need to upgrade all my struts.
