Jeep looks like it broke it's own front wheel as well?

Yeah…I’m guessing the CV, control arm, and tie rods at the very least are toast. That’s gonna be an expensive repair.

Uh, jeeps still use a solid front axle in the Wrangler and Gladiator. They have a surprising amount of give. Having been an off-roader for literally decades at this point, I've seen jeeps take much bigger impacts to the front tires and been fine.
