I just replaced mine for exactly this, the bushing collapse. I noticed it when I saw one of my tires wearing bald on the inside. I took it to the aliment shop and the guy told me it was shot. So I replaced it, pain in the butt. I also replaced the upper control arm like Weasel suggested.

Do you have air suspension?
