Body Damage is Cool
Talk them down, or a deal on the springs too, if yours are toast.

Might be worth checking the axle farther. For example, measure tire-tire front and rear and see if the tires are parallel or not. If not, then the housing is bent. If they are still parallel, then you might have shifted the axle under the springs or something like that. Easy enough to loosen the u-bolts and inspect that area and see what is up.
