    Hi all,
    Hoping you can help.
    Bring my 06 Almera in on Saturday to have a bent axel looked at and fixed.

    Now someone here suggested it may be a "broken wish bone".

    Can someone here give me a rough estimate if it was either of these things.

    Hit a curb and now the right side front wheel is closers the back than the front.
    So much so that when I turn right that it rubs off the inside and is wearing the tire down (Metal threads are now showing on a new tire bought 4 months ago)

    Thanks

    Happened me before and the tyre came off on the way to the garage from the wheel rubbing the arch. It actually happened me twice cant remember the exact price but i think it was around 500 give or take a few quid. That was on a 01 micra and a mirage though yours could be more expensive
