ok i was riding the other day with my new 400ex and i was turning a corner and hit a rut and gassed it right into a tree, my front right tire took all of the impact. it bent the rim, tie rod, a arm and brake rotor, i now have replaced all of these and put it all back together and the tire is still hard to spin and doesnt spin straight, does this mean my spindle is bent? thanks

There is a very good possibilty of that. try switching your front hubs from side to side and see what happens. if your right hub spins fine on the other sde its more than likely your spindle.

does anybody make an aftermarket spindle? Or is stock the only choice.

Stock is the only choice unless you go to a protrax front end but thats hi dollar
