Subject:      Lower control arm bushings
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello,

I'm trying to determine if my lower control arm bushings need
replacement. They look okay, but I'm concerned that part of the bushing
looks like it is squished out more on one side than the other.

Here is a photo of the right lower control arm bushing.

Can those who know take a look and tell me if it looks like replacement
time or not?

Also there, for those who are interested, is a photo of old and new
front strut bar bushings.

thanks,


Todd
