Default slid into a curb

well i was being an idiot and i did a 180 into a soft roll curb. not a 90 degree one. anyway the front passenger side tire grabbed first then the back end swung around. the camber was almost straight up and down and the right rear wheel turned slightly left (front of the wheel towards driver side)

i work at a dealership and my alignment guy that does work for me said all he coudl notice was the knuckle had signs of stress and needed replacing.

the camber pushed its bracket slightly and was out of whack and he re-adjusted it.

can you think of any other parts that would bear the weight of the impact?

mind you it only impacted the rim about 2 inches up.
