    Not sure. Not gonna touch it tho. Contacting my insurance agent Monday and gonna take it to a shop to get it all evaluated. The tie rod looks stripped, spindle is bent for sure, lower control arm might be tweaked or the bushings are fucked for sure , tire is ruined but it was bald anyway. I'd say the CV is fucked but I drove it on the trailer in 4-lo last night and it worked so CV might be fine. Gonna guess the LCA mounts are tweaked too.

    The tire is kicked back too. Like its not just kicked in. Its rubbing the frame and stuff by the cab mount. Steering rack may be damaged. May not. Who knows.
