Matty's first 1st Gen

It had just finished raining, and was -8 outside, the roads were ice, i had just finished changing my oil and putting a new fuel filter in, and i decided to fill up my tires, i drive to the gas station, and the entrence is pure ice, i can't steer, can't brake, and i slowly smoke the curb, i'd say i hit the curb at about 20 kmh, maybe less, but my tire is all screwed up, and the rim is all chewed up around the lip, but when i put my spare, the wheel is pointed left not too much, just a few degrees, but i can really feel it, would just a simple alignment fix this, or is it more than likely that lil curb is going to take a big chunk out of my wallet?

Thanks in advance

Take it to a shop and get an alignment.

is that all you think it is, cause i was taking a look at it, and i think my tie rod may be bent a little bit, does anyone know how much they go for

A tie rod will be ~$80 to $100 CAD.

The tie rods dont usually bend. They are tough as nails. Its the threaded adjuster that bends. Get a new one and 2 new nuts (trust me on that). Replace it, adjust it as best you can, then take it to a shop for an anignment.

If ya slid sideways into it, You may wanna take a look at your control arm... I put a small extra curve in that when I tried to avoid an idiot in the snow a few years back...

The front steering and suspension on these cars if fairly straight forward. Jack it up and compare the components left to right. If anything's different, change it.
