Specifically what is the chassis leg? Yellow/Red or Greens? Or all colours? Is a chassis leg a full horizontal beam which is part of the monocoque or is it something else alltogether?

The reason I ask is because I curbed my car. When the shop repaired the front suspension and tried to align, they could not get it right. The right wheel (impact side) is somewhat behind the left wheel.

They rechecked and discovered that the chassis leg was "damaged". During conversation, I think it was mentioned that the subframe had pushed the leg(s) upwards and skewed. As a result, they propose a jig and "straightening" of the chassis leg(s) and replace the subframe.

I guess I just need this visualized and confirmed.

Also, in our local tongue they refer to the subframe as a "traverse". Is the subframe the beige X part (cross member??) or all the beige stuff including the "pipe looking" stuff under the transmission?
