Bent Lower control Arm ?!?
Snow sucks...i took a turn too fast and slid into a curb with the front driver side tire. Im thinkin i bent the lower control arm because the entire wheel and tire is pushed back up against the fender wall. I was able to drive it the rest of the way home, which wasnt much at all, but it pulls to the left alot. Rubs on the fender well. Any input will help...price for new control arm, where to get one, if it is worse than that? Thanks :thinking:

hope u didnt damage anything else (ie. axel, strut) is the wheel still at the proper camber or is it tilted in or out? Answering these questions wont help me answer your question but others might benifit from this info

It'll be hard for us to say what's bent, since it could be any number of things.
I will tell you that when I hit a curb with my driver's side front wheel, my upper control arm broke and everything else was fine....and I hit it HARD!
I can't remember how much the part was, but it was rather pricey.
