Anyways you can get some pictures? Or maybe draw a sketch and post it?

If not what is the o on your diagram in the post?

Rear trailing arm? Point it out in this pic. Rear trailing arm is 15 in this pic.

Yeah if the O on your diagram is the wheel hub, then the trailing arm is to the left of that. Its a pretty large peice.

when the wheel is bent like that is there anything else wrong with the brakes and the whole assembly? so basically the car is like this | |----------\ \ not that bad but something like that. thanks again

Make sure the upper control arm (#8 or 10 depending on your model) and lower control arm (#19) is not bent. The wheel assembly (brakes and what not) should be ok. IF the top of the wheel is bent in towards the car then its likely that the upper control arm is bent.
