Default suspension problems! i need help ASAP

so heres the story, i bought a 94 LS that has been hit in the front passenger side. i looked at it before i bought it thinkin it was an easy fix. i thot it was only the upper control arm since that shiizz was broken into pieces. so i changed that out and now my control arm is rubbing my springs and the wheel has hella negative camber. i believe it is the lower control arm, but i am not sure. here are some pix to help explain better.

its going to be really hard to tell which is bent and damage and all that until you get another teggy and compare it...id recommend you get another teggy and jack it up or try to switch the suspension from another teggy so at least you can see which of the parts needed the replacement as supposed to repair...

Yeah same thing.. I would pull the wheel off so you can get a pic from the side. Looks like you have to replace the spindle and the upper a arm. Hopefully the mounts for the upper a arm are ok. Good luck and post another pic if you can.
