Good LCA bushings make a big difference

Boy having good Lower Control Arm bushings make a big difference in ride. I have almost no vibration in the steering now. Before I thought it was all due to the road. The car seems to coast much better now too. Now all I need is an alignment.

They are a major pain in the ass to install yourself though. If you do it yourself have a machine shop or a independent mechanic press the bushings in the arms for you. Without the special tool its next to impossible to get them in straight.
