ill post some pictures here in a second . but said tow truck company bent my flipin tie rod becuase they used that to hook my car up and pull it up on to the flat bed.

a 2,900 lb car being pulled up by using a 3/8" circle stock thats outrageous.

what do you think i can do about it now..

im going to take pictures of it as we speek.

Give 'em a call and see what they'll do... Don't be mean though, otherwise they'll say "too bad"

I like the fact there is a hole in the control arm RIGHT THERE that would be used at a mounting spot if you HAD to.

I am sure they will pay to have it fixed.

LoL @ idiot tow drivers, guy will probably be fired and they will have to find another hack willing to give their life up for peanut's.
Also LoL at circle stock, uh round ?

It'd probably cost more to sue 'em than it would for a new tie rod end and an alignment...

That ain't a tie rod end.

Your tie rod end is fine.
Pull the rubber boot and yank out that bent steering rod and take it to the stealership.
Install it, and then get an alignment ASAP, or you will kill your tires and risk some serious lives.
Either way...there's your problem...

I was just about to say this.

That is not your tie rod end bent. Your tie rod END is the END which connects by the wheel.

Perhaps you should start a sympathy thread, or a blog that those who care can log into.

That, or make a Myspace account and write about how much your life sucks day in and day out, maybe record some acoustic guitar/vocals to mate your feelings with a tune.

Really though, I would be upset too. But I don't think you need a million threads about the same thing.
