i hit a curb with my front right wheel making a u turn a few months ago and ever since my car has been pulling to the right and shakes at about 60mph/100kph.:oops:  
i had an alignment and the mechanic said its bent beyond an alignment (i believe it has to do with the caster of the front right strut), so now im looking for a reputable and honest shop that can make my car drive straight again. if anyone has any experience or advice they can offer me i’d appreciate it.

the one guy I know with a frame machine won’t put anything on for less than $700,

In the FSM there is a page with measurements for the chassis, download the FSM (FAQ’s section of this board), find the section/page, start measuring…

I doubt that you would bend the frame/structure before a lower contol arm or steering subframe

but then again, these chassis seem to rot VERY well in the inner fender wells

i would replace all front suspension parts with replacements from parted cars before moving onto the frame puller
