hit a curb! the aftermath sort of....
long story short i hit a curb with the left rear of my car. i babied it home with my tire slowly leaking air due to the broken wheel. my car was dog track really bad... to where i was almost looking out my driverside window to go straight. i got it home pulled off both wheels and compared sides to see if anything was noticable. i found that my trailing arm was slightly bent and a washer/spacer between the spindle and subframe(or dtss) was missing like half of it...like it shattered.
i replaced the trailing arm but left the spacer/washer because of time. my wheel still has tons of toe out and positive camber with that wheel not to mention the wheel moves alot when driving and the rear end floats or moves alot... could thatr spacer be the cause or is there something i cant see that is making the wheel move off axis like its about to fall off.
this is already after i changed the trailing arm
and the picture of how it normally sits
any suggestions of what i should look for or any first hand experience with the dtss anythings cool even the your stupid for hitting a curb comments...it cant be as worse as what my friends have said already

hate to tell you this, but it could be permanant. i let someone borrow my rx7, which they decided to try and drift... *******.
anyway, my wheel was crooked. i replaced everything, to include the subframe, to no avail. i couldnt for the life of me figure out what was bent, but it had to have been something on the chassis. needless to say, it became a parts car.
