Did you crack you radiator?
You may have bent part of your steering too, a new alignment with a tape measure might do the trick. Or you could've busted a ball joint

best bets gonna be look for bent parts, or you may have just slid the drag bar sleeve a little bit. i would take it by a shop and have them check it out and try and align it.

if its over heating check rad fluid.
and make sure fans are working.
may not be leaking from rad itself.
and measure front of tires inside to inside and compare to rear of tires inside to inside and it might help narrow down where your alignment problem is.
