I recently picked up a set of the powerflex front control arm bushings and replacement ball joints. It there's any play when I change out the bushings, the ball joints are going to be changed out too!

Hi BB48!
I did change both arms (thrust and wishbone) along with the solo ball joint. I have the Meyle HD thrust arm bushing and does appear to be okay at rest but, as Slick suggested will take a pry bar and check it for excessive play.
