    Hey all! new to the forum here.. so I just bought my first Tacoma, a slightly wrecked one to rebuild and mod:D.. it took a hit in the front left, and bent something in the suspension. the wheel was way outta line, so I adjusted the tierod just so I could drive it to the shop.. but since I did that, the wheel leans in at the top.. so I'm trying to figure out what all is bent.. I know the uca bolt is bent, I can see that, but I'm wondering if there's a chance the whole tower is wracked little bit?? I can't see any indications that anything else is bent, except I'm suscpicous maybe the spindle also bent? does anyone have any measurements I could try, to see if I could figure out whats all bent? the uca bolt head on this side is a little further from the fender sheet metal than the driver's side.. is that supposed to be the same? ill attach some pics in case that helps.. thanks in advance!!
