Default 400 ARCTIC 4X4 AUTO TIRE LEANING INTO FRAME

I have a 2005 400 auto 4x4 which I hit a rock with the left tire the rim bent very severly. After replacing the tire and rim the new tire and rim on the left side is leaning towar the frame and is undrive able. I dont see any thing bent that is noticeable?

Please send and possible Ideas.


Thanks Dan S

i had a similar problem. look for broken paint on welds or any bends in the metal, a-arms, axle, anything. what i found with mine was on the front right, the a-arm mounts(there welded to the frame) were bent. so i ended up cutting a relief cut and bending it back. then welded it. oh, maybe check the knuckle mine was bent as well as the A-arms. this all happened when my friend rolled it. everything was only slightly bent but made a difference when i fixed them all.
