Jerry, If you'll look at the pictures I posted, you'll notice that it looks like the bearings have been freshly done. The wheel turns smoothly, and the free play I described appears to be caused by the bad lower control arm bushings, not the bearings.

As a former aerospace mechanic with 12 years of experience, I also know a little bit about "maintenance." Quit being so angry. Sheesh....
