The steering wheel is off quite a bit and the passenger side tire wall is missing a chunk. The front tires held air long enough for me to limp home but went flat over night. Iv got new tires ordered already but I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on what to look for when I put it up on the lift. Thanks a lot
Lol nice.. I would check literally everything under the car, suspension components, bushings, tie rods, wheel bearings, shocks, fuel lines, brake lines, make sure the frame is straight, check the oil pan, engine mounts, trans / pan etc.. I'm assuming you went over the curb with the possibility of scraping up the undercarriage.
