i was dragged over a curb(sidewalk) when the truck cut me off and busted the wheel, but i hit something else and cant find what.
i looked under the car and theres a few suspect spots that i saw but dont know which ones been there before.i just bought the car few months ago.

the pass wheel is on the picture
as well as pass ball joint and the marks it left on the disk dust cover.
the car sat for a week so all the bare metal is rusty since its been raining all the time so i cant really tell whats fresh scuffed and whats not.

drove it today first time with some steelies

no wobble on the freeway. no problems on small bumps
but it does feel different when accelerating.

finally i found a big enough bump to run over and it bottomed out.
i couldnt tell if it is something scratching the pavement or tires hitting the wheelwell

but it definitely knocks when i run over a bump im suspecting that the shocks are damaged(not blown completely) but dont have enough pressure.

i tested the pass shock and it goes down fairly easy and goes back up but theres not much pressure in it.

so from the damage on the pictures what you guys think i should check.

 

You bent either the lower control arm, steering knuckle, strut, or all 3. From the pics, I'd guess at minimum the lower control arm is bent in and back, causing negative caster and positive camber. Toe will be way off too. Your best bet is to take it to someone who does steering/suspension/alignments and find out which parts need to be replaced. The strange acceleration feeling is most likely because your tires aren't pointing the same direction anymore, so they fight each other while driving down the road.

 

yep also noticed my steering wheel is off center counterclockwise when i drive.

 

Yeah, that's caused by the tow being way off on that side. What happens while driving is the front tires have to average themselves out in order to go straight, which makes the steering wheel point to either side. Although your LF is probably fine, the total toe will quickly ruin both tires.

 

I would pull the arms and compare them side-by-side. If they are bent you will probably be able to tell. It sounds like the shock is busted, too -- if it's easy to move it's probably leaking (otherwise it should provide decent resistance). Do you see signs that it's leaking? Or hear a loud squishing noise when you compress it?

 

yes the shock is squishing when i press it.i can press it with one hand. and the car botoms out rather easy.
today i also noticed that right wheel is indeed pushed back. im usung junk tires for now to drive it

heres the driver wheel


passenger wheel

 

The passenger wheel points outward! check for the arms

 

les schwab just looked at it.
and i did also
it will need allignment
inner and outer tie rods need to be replaced
lower control arm replaced.
and also the guy noticed that the crossmember is shifted back maybe 1.5mm

 

By crossmember does he mean the subframe where the LCAs attach?

 

oh ye i meant subframe

 

It's too bad the guy didn't center the steering wheel before he printed the measurements. When a lot of people do an alignment check, they just hit print after sweeping caster, which has you point the wheels where toe is right in the middle when done. If he were to center the steering wheel after that, and then print, it gives you a better picture of what's happening with the damaged side. Also it would be nice to know the SAI and IA measurements, which tell you a lot about which parts are damaged.

Either way, it sounds like you have a pretty good idea what's going on. The concern is always that the obvious stuff gets replaced, then you find out the knuckle/strut/strut mount/etc are also bent.

 

I'm worried about the subframe. It bolts to the chassis with four large bolts on either side (at least on Integras). If it's budged the LCA will never mount correctly and the car will not drive correctly...

Can you take a picture or tell what is going on with it?

 

didnt take a picture of it should have done that.

also the guy pointed out that the shocks are pretty much sitting on bumpstops.

so that explains why it bottoms out so easy cz its already all the way down lol

which wasnt like that before.
