corbin is a well-known jackass
I was finally able to get it up on jackstands and I didn't see anything bent. The half-shaft looked like it was angled kinda weird but wouldn't that cause clunking?

I also took it to the shop my parents get their car stuff done and they couldn't find what was bent either. They wanted to put it on a frame machine and just bend it back into shape... sounds pretty retarded to me. They also said that the strut tower domes are okay and that they just look like that from the factory. I'll try to get some pictures of them to show what I mean. They are creased at the back of the strut tower dome, and the left is much more creased than the right.

I hit the curb on my left, so it initially doesn't make sense that my wheel is negative cambered. With that angle of hit it should theoretically be cambered positive. I believe the negative camber is just because all the shit got pushed up... that being said, what can be damaged if the rear left wheel is forcefully pushed up?

I have nothing to go off of except tearing apart the whole rear end and randomly replacing stuff.

If I replace the subframe and everything... is it possible that it still won't align perfectly?

Car feels floaty and vague... steering doesn't like to return to center as well as it did before. Pulls to the right at high speed.
