Default Lower control arm bushings in!

What a pain in the *** to get those bushings out. I ended up taking the control arms to a shop and 1 hour and 30$ later they were in. They made a huge difference in the handling of the car. I think I will relax with the car for a bit and wait for the spring to finnish up my "to do/want to do" list.

Default I am getting my control arm bushings replaced soon. Trying to eliminate a clunking up front.

Hope this helps!

It sure fixed noises and movement in my front end. Bigger change than I expected to be honest.

Default With help from CvTech, we got the c.a. bushings in. Man what a difference with that new "tightness".

Sweetness is more like it. Actually I am still having a clunking when turning wheel sharply. Tie-rod time!
