Question Suspension promblems...

Couple days ago i ran over a curb at 25 mph......(deer)
well i took my car the to a collision shop and he found a rear tie rod bent and a bent rim....both have been replaced and car feels normal at slow speeds.

BUT on the way back home today i noticed at high speeds 65+ the car feels unstable or "wobblely"...and it pulls around with curves in the road....if i go above 90 the front end starts to vibrate or shake.....im not sure what could be wrong?
Could this be bad shocks....or motor mounts...any ideas???? thanks

you could have broken a shock.. or many other things. you need to go to a good alignment shop...

and have everything on that corner looked at..
