Wrecked Ranger

Hey All,
I'm new here but, I'm sure someone can help. My son ran off in a ditch with his 1994 Ranger 2 wheel drive 3.0 Liter pickup. At first it had severe Toe-out on the passenger side and negative camber. I adjusted the toe back in so that we could drive it home. Now it still has negative camber on both sides. What would be the most likely suspension part or parts that are causing the negative camber? I'm not much of a mechanic so be gentle. Thanks, Markjuan1

Just a wild guess, but probably bent either the tie rods or the torsion bar.

94 I believe still uses the I-beam suspension, so most likely the problem is either a wasted ball joint, or bent wheel knuckle.

Camber being out of adjustment can affect toe, although there is a high chance of a bent tie rod as well.
