Had an accident and looking for advice on what's broken

[ike84]

Jasper,

The diagonal braces are not straight, they are supposed to be shaped a you described - mirror image gentle S shaped. A chunk of of one is no bueno and would warrant replacing. In addition, I would replace all the hardware that mounts it to the other components. I recently bring one of the 4 bolts before it even fit to factory torque spec, so if be amazed if you took a hot like that and didn't start some if them off.

The upright is the part that the hub carrier and tie links are mounted to. They are notoriously fragile in these otherwise stout suspensions and will often only come to attention (as Woody rightly pointed out) when the car won't get into spec alignment.

I have a used diagonal brace, and I also got a subframe, hub carrier, all the control arms and new axle.
Went to attach the nub carrier this evening and noticed the strut is bent. Need to find one of those now.
