oh and i am pretty sure my car is due for a good alignment haha

Just take the car to an alignment shop. trying to cure the problem by moving the steering wheel is not the answer. You will still have problems. The car will not drive correctly, you will have more full turns of the wheel in one direction than the other, and that is ghetto as hell!!!



Just bring it to a pro and have it checked.



OH and no just drifting the car will not brake or bend any tie rod, that is an asshat statement. I still say you hit something, that or something was loose(like a tie rod end), and all the drifting made it worse.
