I am confused because I am being told by different shops that I DO or that I DON'T have "REAR SPINDLES"... I need to get new tires put on the car and I am afraid that if I DO have a bent spindle that it will harm the new tires. I took my car for an alignment at a Tire Shop and while there they (admitted) broke/damaged the left front wheel bearing, which they replaced. Two months later my car is pulling and loose steering, so I take it back to the same shop, and now they are telling me that it has a bent left rear spindle and they cannot get alignment set. QUESTIONS: 1) Does this car actually have rear spindles? 2) How does a spindle get bent? 3) Could the tire shop caused the bent spindle? Help I need to buy tires soon.
 
rear spindle? a rose by any other name... there is something the wheel is bolted to.call it a spindle or not,,..spindle[or whatever name you give it.. gets bent by pothole...curb... tmaybe warping a rotor with inpact gun

but if bent...its bent and needs work..
