front left control arm for 2001 trans am
Ouch! I bet that hurt.

Any 93-02 lower A-Arm will work (9). Replace the lower ball joint if you buy a used one. That'll run you about $100 parts and labor. They are about $200 new, but come with a new ball joint already installed.
I suspect the knuckle (2) is bent as well. The knuckles are extremely vulnerable and bend pretty easily. Problem is, you can't tell till you get it on an alignment machine.
I see you've already bought a replacement shock. I would also inspect the end links (16) and sway bar mounts (12).
