W123 suspension/steering damage questions

I recently ran my passenger side front tire off a country road with no shoulder (about a 6 inch drop). I steered left to get back on the road, and while the wheels were turned, the passenger side tire hit something. It blew the tire and destroyed the rim. I put my spare on (in the rain) and drove it home, but it was a nightmare to steer.

The tire has an EXTREME positive camber (top out/bottom in) but I know enough about the steering/suspension components in general to know what all I need to start looking at replacing. I know it will need a full, professional alignment, but I would like to replace any damaged parts myself to save the $$$$.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated!

Phil
