What is broken?

[chappys4life]

I was in a minor wreck solo car accident lost control did a spin with a slide into a smaller tree. The fender was hit right at the very back arch and dented in, wheel bent and you can see some rubbing on the strut when I drove it home.

Here is the wreck damage:


Then I changed the ride side wheel, tire, control arm, tie rod assembly, cab, and new lollipop bracket. After a better looking with it sitting the tire is really kicked out. Could I have damage the knuckle and strut? Or what could it be?

You may have damaged the strut/knuckle or moved the shock tower. The first thing to do would be to replace the strut/knuckle. Then see if that wheel still has excess camber, If it does take the car to a frame shop.

yeA frame maybe

that's some serious movement if it was the shock tower. I've seen struts bend from impacts. I had about 3 degrees of negative camber from an impact similar to yours. Frame wasn't damaged, however.

I would also suggest measuring your shock towers and comparing them to someone with the same model year to see if they have shifted significantly.

Found a strut housing so replacing it when it comes in. Once that is done taking it to a frame shop.

I would say your upper strut mount is bent to hell.

Did you replace your tie rod on that side?

Hopefully its just the strut tube/upright. My car came with a bent one(-1.3* camber at stock height). Picked up a replacement set for cheap and one of those is bent badly as well.

OP should repeat this process a few times and market a "hellaflush" front camber kit.

Hood gap doesn't look too radically smashed, probably not the strut tower. That much neg camber would need 2-3 inches of motion at the top. I would think a strut tower bent in would bring the fender into the hood, thus preventing from closing.
Your milage might vary!!
