Hey guys I hit a curb in my 240 and blew out my strut (rear) anyways I noticed the tire leaning in but thought it was cause of the strut I replaced my strut and it still leans in, But my biggest problem is that everytime I hit a bump the whole rearend feels like it is rooster tailing, I figured it threw my camber off but I do not know much about suspension so if anyone could help I would appreciate it. Thanks!

Just hope its a LCA looks like it might be time to upgrade or find a cheap junkyard. I have broke a rear subframe before so it could be alot worse.

Yeah I cant see anything that is bent, and I think I may have bent my sway bar cause of the way it wobbles...
