Parts for Sale?!?!

I.R.R. MEDIC

Hey ya. So I am new to T4R forum, and well, Im new to forums in general. This is officially my first post ever...But I digress. I am not sure if this is the proper way for me to post so PLEASE don't hessitate to comment with tips or suggestions.
I just bought a 2004 SR5 last month. Got her for $8K with a salvage title soooo there are some issues. She was rear ended pretty hard apparently but the majority of the damage was repaired. The deal DID NOT have any service record of previous maintenance or issues prior the accident (sketchy I know). The engine runs flawlessly, interior is mint, body is ok... the hidden gremlins I have found are as follows...
.Rear drivers side frame is bent behind the wheel (took to a frame shop and they said that this should not effect it much since the damage is behind the wheel)
.The bolts securing the tow hitch on that same side (rear drivers) are sheared off. Kinda tells ya the force that she was hit with.
.Took her into Jiffy Lube for a fluids check and they found TRANSMISSION FLUID IN THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL!!! I am no mechanic, but I am pretty sure that is not the right spot for it. (that has been replaced).
.The main issues I have having/Top priority are a bent front impact bar which is pushing my drivers side wheel well splash guard back. This causes the tire to rub against the plastic wheel well when I reverse the vehicle with the tires pointing right. Not good.
. Also, when I drive I have to keep the steering wheel turned a few degrees to the left in order to keep straight. When the wheel is straightened, it drifts to the right (I assume this is just a alinement issue. Hand the front frame measured under the hood and it was not bent. Fingers crossed)

So what am I asking after all this info? I would like to know if anyone is selling a front impact bar for a 4th gen T4R SR5. If this is not the appropriate place for this post please let me know that as well.
OR if anyone that has added a front winch bumper to their rig, did you remove this part?! If so I will just end up removing it once I add a bumper.
Other opinions and comments are welcome please.
I will be attaching a parts diagram as well. It is part #15,16, 19

I suggest going to the classifieds section for the correct T4R model and posting a thread beginning with "WTB….." (want to buy) listing the parts you are looking for. As others post after you, your thread will slowly be pushed down. It helps to once in a while post a "bump" on your thread to bring it back to the top. Good luck.

$8k?! That seems VERY steep, as Ive seen '04 4x4's show up on craigslist with good titles, no (visible) damage, and all in running order for NO more than $9k. I'm wanting to buy salvage to do my 4x4 conversion, and if its going to cost me $8k I might as well by all new parts lol.
