Default should i be worried?

I was wheeling at the uwharrie and slid off a rock on to my lower control arm bracket, just looks bent a little, no broken welds. It also broke off the grease fitting. I think I can get it out with an easy out.

Purejeep makes some great LCA skids. Have them welded in place and you'll wheel with confidence.

Undo your ca and bend it back out with a big crecent wrench. CA skids are a good idea too for reinforcing.
