I owe a 2001 ZX3. I was recently t-boned and the person hit me right at my front driver's side wheel. I drove it home and then tried to drive it the next day and I couldn't. That wheel didn't coordinate w/ the other wheel and the way I was steering. I took my wheel off to take a peek and noticed a bent bar. I'm a struggling college, so I don't have money to get it fixed at a shop. I wanted to know the exact name of the part so I can do it myself. The piece was a thin rod connecting my wheel to a suspension-type hose or pinion or whatever it's called. Some suggestions I've gotten already are CVU joint, control arm, or a tie rod. It's at the rear of that wheel (closest to the door). If anyone has any ideas, I could really use some help.
