Default Busted something in my suspension

Sorry, I know that title is REALLY vague, but I discovered that yesterday after getting all the stuff I need to replace my wiper cowl, which should arrive Thursday.

There was a dude in front of me at O' Reilly's in Azle that runs a hot rod shop and I asked if he minded checking my motor mounts because of an unrelated issue(most likely bad U-joints) and while I was purchasing what I needed, he did a walk around inspection and pointed out my left rear tire was tucked into the wheel well, a sign of something busted.

He told me to have someone put it on the rack for 5 minutes to figure out if it's a strut or one of the control arms.

Surprisingly it wasn't the potholes that caused it, it was more than likely the city dredging the ditch next to my driveway, and when I backed out, I rolled off it a few times.

Oi.

Is your car lowered? If so to keep the rear end aligned properly you need a pan hard bar. Mine did the same thing.
