Put the rear up on jack stands. Take that tire off and look around for obviously broken stuff. Take pics for second opinions. Worst case, you can snag the whole trailing arm assembly at a junk yard. Hopefully there's no body damage. When my car got wrecked on that side, the part of the body where the A arm was attached got bent in. To this day, I still have too much toe on that corner and it can't be fixed.

drove it halfway to college untill it broke down.. my theory on what happend...
1. cat just went bad
2. hole in exhaust
3. neighbor trying to hacksaw my exhaust off.. been seeing a white ek hatch ride around real shady, stock muffler, and i know the ppl around here are theives.. half of them are in jail on heroin charges.. so im not sure if they tryed to get my **** or what..
anyhow, im picking 3 as Most probable cause, so i got window marker and write "touch my **** and ill kill you" all over the windows haha, pics comming soon
