Slide out!

Slide out!
I slid out and hit a small curb on the driver side ( left) in my 2003 TT recently. Most of the impact was on the front wheel. Tie rod was bent ( and replaced now) but there's obviously other bent parts as the alignment isn't right ( +7 degrees of caster on both sides ) and wierd thing is, on the side I hit, (the left front wheel )seems to protrude out further from the wheel well, while the right wheel, seems recessed slightly.
alignment guys around here haven't been much help...
anyone have any experience with this thing?
I need to know how to properly determine what's bent.
thanks a ton!!

You need to check the parts individually - control arms, and, if both sides are out, i'd look at the sub-frame. It could have shifted. One would think it would have shifted the opposite way however.
Since this is not really a suspension tuning question, i would post it in the main section for your model and series, where there is more traffic and more people who know that specific car.
