Default Control Arm shaft pics

I guess I was a bit rustrated and posted the wrong question before. I just want to know if this cross shafts, lower are suppossed to look this way, they look a bit bent to me. But both sides look the same. Of course as I stated before I did not realize what I was asking and the lower cross shaft can not be bought off set. If anybody know please let me know are they supposed to look a bit bent? Silly me trying to work in the car and watch the game at the same time.
Thank You for helping

They are bent and should be replaced.

How did you bend them? Those things are tough as anything on this car.

I actually have had the car for about 13 years now and it always drove like crap. So for the last year I have been replacing the front and rear suspension. For the damage I have found up to this point it seems like the car was in an accident before I got it. the weird part is that both sides are bent when the evidence points at the right side being the one that got hit.
