I will post some pictures of the Front suspension as soon as I can find an adequate jack, when I get home I will see if I can squeeze under and get a good angle with the camera. but I don't think Control arms are supposed to twist and bend the way mine are.
as for the rest of the replies to my post, it would seem I won't be able to bend it back slap in the new radiator and drive her to work regularly like I did before. thanks for all the helpful feedback.
