WHAT DID I BREAK?? 200 1986

My '86 245 either broke a strut insert or mount this morning.It lists badly to the left(driver's side)I was driving in the snow and the roads were horrific all of a sudden I felt a huge clunk for the underside.I thought I hit some ice and it bounced up and hit the floor.It could have also happened when my neighbor had to tow me out of the driveway with a chain,but that was from the rear using the tow eyelet.
When I got home the left front was low.It fails the bounce test(won't come up at all).
It's still snowing so I didn't take the wheel off and jack it up yet.What the f*&% happened?
thanks,Phil
