Yes it definately is your Lower Control Arm

 

:(

 

and if it bent, chances are other shit has too.

my mate was drifting his car and undered into a gutter, we thought he bent the lca, can't remember if it actually ended up being bent or not but yeah, we replaced it.

 

it had moved the castor rod around a little so we also replaced that also and it was still pulling hard one way so we got a wheel alignment and was all good.

 

if it doesn't appear bent and is just pulling herd to one side, try getting a wheel aligner to check and adjust the castor. he will soon tell you if something is up or not.
