I was messing around and ended up hitting the curb and bending some parts...

I bent the passenger side rear lower control arm and another part. I need to know what it is called so I can go about getting another one (yes, I am a car n00b). It is shaped like a Y and branches out from the main car body. It is also right next to the lower control arm. What is this part called?

Look at that pic, tell us what you bent.

Only thing I can think of that even remotely looks like a Y other than the RLCA would be the whole spindle/upright. Or maybe RUCA?

I don't think my part is shown in that picture... It appears to be lower than those. I looked at it again, and it definitely looks like a Y.

Yeah.. but he said he already knows that he broke the LCA. He broke another part and needs to know what that part is.
