Unhappy car pulling to the side

hey guys , my dumb *** brother was messing around in my01 ws6 and he lost control and hit street curb hard . no damage happend to the body but know the car pulls the right alot and makes a skeaky sound from the rear passanger tire area kind of like when i had my warped rotors. Hopefully its not a broken axle . I got a 12 bolt 33 spline axles and its a sixspeed.I was wondering if anybody had a similar accident and what it was or your what you think could be wrong thanks.

Could be alot of things, bent LCA, twisted spline/axle, bend wheel. The list goes on. I would jack the car up on jackstands, take the wheel off and get a freind to drive the car VERY slowly, look for bent stuff and go from there.

I am leaning towards the axles are bent.

I had a friend with a V6 jump a curb at 40mph, and limp it home. He took it to the dealership and paid around $1400 to fix with used parts. I don't know what all he messed up though.
That sucks, I don't think I'd let my borther drive anymore
