So my car decided she could take on an 18 wheeler's tire today. She lost frown.gif Cosmetically, the damage is very minimal, I just need to replace the bumper and passenger fender. The reason this is on the suspension, etc. thread is because my right wheel took a pretty heavy hit from that tire and now it has negative camber and my alignment is off. I know that's a bit vague, but could you guys tell me what sort of problems a hit like that may cause? I've already gotten CV joint/axle, control arm, strut, and wheel hub from my friends, I just want to see what you guys think. Thanks!

Yes, I bet your strut folded in towards the body a bit. Common to see this in accidents where the wheel was hit, usually bends right where the piston rod enters the strut cartridge.
