wheel alignment looking funky
hey guys got my car towed the other day, my car was stuck on right hand down lock,
and the tow truck dude was around the corner on the cars left due to the traffic and just put the chains on and dragged it along the road to his tray, now passenger wheel is left hand lock while drivers side wheel is straight, havnt had the time to look but do you think it could be anything besides the rack.

Are you running S13 front or Toyota? Any mods done to it?
Did you hit something recently?
What were the specs on the wheel alignment you last got?
got any pics? this is pretty interested. if youve got long tie rods with average lock just get an alignment but you may as well get an alignment anyway and see what they say. they wont align it if youve broken your steering wrack
ae86 front end
only mods are coilovers rcas and ps knuckles
last wheel alignment was -2.5 camber +0.2 toe
i had a little bit of a bump and grind so thats why i asked if steering rack is the weak point of an 86,
or would it most likely be steering arms, tierods/ends, or something else to be the culprit ?
Are the rack mount bushes ok?
sounds like something has snapped
get some pics up from under it
the steering racks are decent and I have yet to hear of any issues like this.

Rack ends or tie rods will bend before the rack does. Sounds like it's either just a visual illusion and it's all ok, or someting in the front end is bent.
Get under it and take a look and all should become clear.

hey guys just went under the car i couldnt see much but these were the only things i could see that looked funny to me ? their both on the drivers side and it will barely give much lock and feels funny when i move the wheel from the outside
Photos of rack mounting poits?
