2013 Yukon ,What causes a wheel not to be centered in fender??? I did notice my end link bar is a little bent, and my caster/camber guide pin is also damaged. I’m thinking about replacing the lower control arm also while I’m at it. The driver side is fine. The passenger side is the one with the that’s leaning backwards towards fender. The FRAME IS GOOD!!! I can’t visually see anything bent besides the end link and the caster/camber guide. Looks to be sitting back about an inch. Tell me what ya’ll Think? Should I replace upper control arm also or just lower. The vehicle did have a little fender bender recently and the wheel had got hit directly. The last photo is a before picture

Control arm probably loose, bent, or got pushed down the bushings..

When I had an un-centered wheel, the upper A-arm bushings were not centered in the arm.
The upper arms are adjustable, so it's possible they just shifted also..
