I believe my Thrust Bushing and Wishbone Control Arms are going bad....?

[Johnny_5]

I havent checked them out but I have the issue when hitting a speed bump or coming to a sudden stop clunk. Ill probably check it out this weekend as Im still waiting for parts for my failed water pump but besides that I have a question regarding parts.....

Should I replace the entire arm or should I purchase just the bushing and is it hard to replace them using hand tools?

For the wishbone control arm theres a ball joint which i could replace but would probably be better to have a press and considering the hassle should I just replace the entire arm?

As for brands...what should I stay with oem? I was looking at the performance urethane mounts but not sure if i want to go that route? OEM is a bit up there in pricing and theres other brands that are just as good like Febi or Meyle. Just wanted your thoughts.

Thanks
