Shock?

When applying brakes right before completing stop car felt like a transmission slippage at stop. After checking transmission fluid not burnt adding Lucas stop slip. Oh yeah I was hearing what seemed like something was loose on front passenger area. Not hearing that anymore. Today I actually opened hood passenger side shock is not in centered. Leaning towards engine I was ale to pull by hand some. The transmission like stopped. Car does not pull to one side or other tracks straight.

as always I came to the best place on the web for the correct answer. Thanking you in advance for your invaluable help.
