my son bashed a curb,pushed front passenger side back farther than the drivers side.Cannot see anything bent,but damaged side spins when in gear but good side does not. If I stop bad side with my hand the other side spins. Something major?

The one wheel spinning and the other not is just the differential working, something will be bent in the suspension, that will have to be inspected by a mechanic.
