Default Suspension HELP!!!

A couple of months ago i hit a median going about 45. I had totally fucked up my alignment and popped a couple of wheels. Months later i got new wheels and tires, and got a complete alignment at tire kingdom. When they did it, one of their "alignment techs" told me i bent my frame and that the caster was off by .4 degrees. WTF does this mean!? MY car pulls extremely hard to the right and multiple alignments doent help. Some people say it might be a bent k-member. I also have waht i think is a bent axle on the passanger side, but i dont know how much that has to do with it. Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

I'd take it to a body shop that works on unibody cars (most do nowadays). You won't know for sure untill somebody who knows what there're doing checks it out. You might have to have the unibody straightened.
