However I think there will be damage done to the CV`s and the axle should be replaced. A replacement arm with sway bar connection should also be obtained.
It would be very useful to know what incident caused the damage; was a wheel replaced already? Normally the arm is designed to bend in an accident to prevent damage to the body whenever possible.

Dave, yes, the wheel of curb impact was was definitely replaced by the previous owner.
