About a month ago I sent my Miata into a curb and while I was very lucky to only mess up the alignment it is still causing me problems. I hit the curb in such a way that the front half of the rear right wheel was smashed it (causing an excessive toe in). I then took it apart and replaced the following:
1. The bent LCA bolt
2. Lower control arm
3. Upper control arm
4. Rear subframe

After replacing the LCA bolt which is know to be the common fault, I still had toe in, even when my eccentric bolts we're adjusted to maximize toe out. Basically no matter what I do with the alignment, I run out of adjustment and the right rear wheel is still toed in. This is leading me to think I bent a frame rail, but I can't imagine doing that when I have 4 parts that would yield before the frame, acting as protection. Could my hub be bent? It looks fine.

Of note all the replacement parts were measured and deemed straight

Thanks

Hub could easily be bent, yea. You can get massive toe swing with one eccentric in and the other out.

Ok thanks, I'll take a look at it

Don't really think anyone looks here anymore, but for record keeping sake it was the upright

Yes we do. Problem identification and resolution is indeed appreciated.
