How are you certain it is bent? After hitting a nasty pot hole im pretty sure either my control arm is bent or my tie rods are screwed.

learn how to drive? are you kidding me? i can't help it if someone comes in to my lane because they dont know how to handle a truck

why would you question me about my car in the first place..."how are you certain that your control arm is bent..." uhhhhh i think i'd pretty much know especially when the handling is different, i mean how retarded are you seriously and if you dont like my post dont look at it, i could careless

and uh EP3, check your grammar too......this kind of attitude dont...????? go to school and get an education dumbass

Asking a legitimate question has nothing to do with liking your post. If you want the best answer on how to fix your problem then people need to know facts. It could be your coilover, your tie rod, it could just be a bent rim. Coming on here and asking us for help, you should be a little more careful.
