After having a little mishap with a mailbox my car has been pulling to the right,, I got it aligned today(needed it anyway,,toe and camber were all screwed since i lowered it a while back) and the guy told me that my caster is 3/4 of an inch off on the right wheel. So obviously i had bent something,, do you guys think I should just get adjustable tension rods to fix the problem? I dont know what else i can do other than changing all front right suspension pieces since everything looks fine,,cant tell what is tweaked. :-/

Time to go to SPLparts.com and get yourself some tension rods.

check the stock tension rod bushings. Maybe one of them is shot and the fluid leaked out. If that's the case, you can just replace the bushings with urethane ones if you want to fix the probelm cheaper.
I still suggest pillowball tension rods though. Some people say the urethane TC rod bushings can crack front control arms.

Could have mangled that tc rod, but also that much caster off couse mean a bent FLCA which you would probably want to replace.
