Pulls to the right after a blowout and running into a curb.
1984 300d
A few months ago I taking a hard left turn on in an area with construction debris. My new tire got punctured and the dirty road made me slide into a curb HARD. It was hard enough to damage my rim and bust out my shock. (both have been replaced)
The ride height of the passenger side (damaged side) was an inch lower afterwards. Today I got my new shocks in and replaced them (boy what a difference in handling). However it is still pulling to the right. I inspected the suspension and can not identify any bent parts besides the one that have curves as part of the design. It is possible that a simple wheel alignment could compensate for the damaged parts, but I would prefer replacing what has been damaged since those parts are already 22 years old.
Any ideas what part could be damaged or ways to test/inspect the parts further?
