Wrecked, and now I've got excessive toe in/out on one tire.
Wrecked, and now I've got excessive toe in/out on one tire.
Is there anyway to tell if it is being caused by the frame being warped?
The frame is messed up a little behind the tire, and I haven't had time to jack the car, remove the tire, and check all the suspension components yet.
I'm at work and was just wondering if there is anyway to tell if it is from the frame?
Thanks, I've been searching but I haven't came upon anything yet... and the manager is giving me looks.

if in doubt take it to a frame shop. you simply can't eyeball the car to tell if the frame is damaged or repairable or not.
if it looks that bad then you are probably hosed.

The rear subframe and toe links take a decent amount of damage before compromising the frame itself. Depending on how you hit you may be lucky, but as karack said, only way to be sure is to take it to a frame/body shop.
Alright..... It isn't so bad that it is pulling to either side. It just is bad enough to wear it will wear my tire down and annoy me.
1. Look at the car before making a thread asking about what could be damaged
2. If the impact was against the rear wheel only, it will most likely just be the subframe. Don't **** with replacing one or two parts of it, replace the whole subframe, they're cheap.

None of the wheels were hit. just the the front fender/door
