sooo, i'm getting ready for a alignment of the car and i'm having a problem with my front suspension.
i knew the car was hit in the front.
i knew the 911 front suspension came out of a car that was hit in the front.

now, the front suspension mount on the pass. side (A-Arm) does not line up correctly.
the mount is supposed to be a tight fit with the bushing and the a-arm "stop".
but it's about 1/4 to 1/2 inch off. altough it is tight, no play.
something is obviously bent.

how can i find out if either my tub is bend or if the pass a-arm (or worse, the cross member) is bend?
anyone has some measurements?

i do have a stress-crack in the chassis right next to that mount.
but i'm not sure if that was from the crash or additional stress of a bend suspension or what.


help!
Andy
