Steering Grinding and Pulling Problem

[S13DRFTKID]

I hit a curb sideways at around 20mph.My front passenger tire hit first and seems like the only thing messed up becasue of the crash. My tension Rod crakced in half so this is a problem. I bought TEIN Pillowball Tension Rods, I will be putting them on later today. I would just like to know what other parts could have been effected. I have a spare control arm (but mine looks in good shape). When I brake and when I drive my car seems to pull toawrd that wheel. ligthly as i drive and a aggressive pull as I brake. Has anyone had the same problem after a crash or curb kiss like mine? Also when i begin to drive it seems and if my tire is going over a bump. When I brake to fast ill hear a grind and somtimes scraping noises. But these problems can all be caused by the craked in half tension rod.So I just hope its only my tension rods and nothing else.Thanks

You might have messed up your CV joint which might be the grinding sound from the bearings or the caliper/rotor damage. Sounds serious. If you are able to, it sounds like you would be able to ollect collision damage if you want, I hit a manhole cover years ago and 3 months later I was told I did frame damage. the insurance co paid the bill - the deductable. It might be worth your while to have a collision shop or a large national car repair co look at it for free to get a good look at it. The pulling is usually brake caliper problems but a miss aligned /damaged front can do similar things some time. You definately need a wheel alignment. Get it done soon. A hard break on a slippery road will put you in a spin or skid into someone real fast. Been there, done that and have the tee-shirt

Well I brought it in to the shop and it turns out the Control arm is bent up to. I cant believe this is happening, I hope it is only the tension rods and the control arm. But now I've decide to just work on reinforcing the chassis and suspension of the car.

dcg i only have liability the insurance company wont do anything but make me pay more thanks though
