Possible bent frame

Hey, pretty new to explorers and was looking underneath the 98 I picked up for 600 bucks because I seen some coolant leaking. Anyways to me it looks like the front frame by the control arm is bent. I got this for a winter beater and it drivers pretty straight so I am not too concerned if it is a little bent but wanted everyone's opinion that could maybe look at their explorer.

Let me know if you cannot see the photo and I will try posting it a different way.

That's the cross member that looks bent. If it doesn't affect ride quality or handling, I wouldn't be too worried about it.

Its tough to tell.
A bent frame could lead to a ton of issues.
See if it passes an alignment.

Thanks for the advice. It seems to drive fine. I probably won't get an alignment until I put new tires on so we will see.
