alright guys.. i need some big time help!

[JC87HB]

so today i was doin about 20mph and really wasnt paying to much attention on where i was at in my lane cause i was focused on traffic entering the road...well my 30s decide to bite the curb and this in turn spins my wheel full right sending me into the guard rail.. well there was just a bit of body damage.. the bumper got owned on the right side.. but the main thing is the frame... i took the truck to my shop cause i wanted to check my alignment.. well my tires instead of being |--| to go striaght... they are infact \--/... they boa out like one wants to go left and the other wants to go right... and there isnt enough toe adjustment to compinsate for it.. frame damage?!?

[Rev_D21]

The alignment shop that checked it could have told you that. That's where steering included angle plays into things. SAI can reveal frame damage.

[JC87HB]

well... they told me before they put her on the lift that there wasnt much room for toe adjustment left so they didnt want me to spend money on an alignment..

[Rev_D21]

They don't do free alignment checks? Take it somewhere else who will at least give you a current read out sheet so we can try to help you out. Tell them to get off their lazy asses and help you. Eyeballin' things doesn't help anyone.

yah.. im towing it to my shop.. where i can do the scans at.. but what do you think it could be in your opinion?

[Rev_D21]

My educated guess...bent control arm.

[JC87HB]

yah.. the uppers looked ok.. i havent fully looked at the LCAs

I am surprised they didnt inspect the linkage before declining the alignment.

[JC87HB]

i mean i did when i got it home and from the eye i couldnt tell that anything was bent.. and ive been under that truck alot....

[RT22]

if the tires lean as you say that is CAMBER and most likely a bent control arm either lower or upper r it really pushed the camber adjustment out, if it is not REAL bad it may be that they can adjust it, if it is bad it is upper or lower control arm.

[JC87HB]

its not camber.... its toe.. they lean on the verticle axis because of the torsion crank.. they are toed out on both sides...

[Rev_D21]

75% chance it's one of the control arms. They will give before the frame ever gives. You could also have bent the spindle which is also common when curbing a vehicle.

thanks so much!!! yah.. i think im going to do the tie rods center link with whatever else is broke/bent
