guys, i drilled a curb, and took a good chunk out of my rim... hit it hard enough to shift the entire suspension back about 1/2". resulting in the car pulling very hard to the right. i replaced the LCA and that shifted it forward some, but not back to it's stock location. the UCA didn't appear to be affected, and i didn't replace the tie-rod end because when i compared the replacement one to the one on the car it wasn't bent at all.

any ideas what else it could be? i was suggested that it might be the spindle/even the strut. i don't think the strut would shift the wheel 1/2" back.

Sounds like me last summer . I hit a curb doing about 60 and bent my rear tire under my car. 2 rims mashed. Had to replace the rear cross member, and all the trailing arms on that side. Old bolts kept snapping and cause me to redo both sides$$$ All OEM new replacements$$$...I figure I'd treat my baby we.ll.

I can't answer your question, but I thought i'd let you know that I can relate.

how easy is it to replace a spindle? what's the part cost?
