Thrust arm bushings...no tech or even susp. smartie here, but I just had thrust arm bushing replaced in my '01 with 73k miles; first time.
Done by a very thorough and trusted Indie, German MotorWerks of Asheville. Their head tech went through my front suspension for almost an hour, (he had done it a year ago in my quest to eliminate/reduce my wheel shimmy under high speed braking.). He changed them out this time, using OE parts, and showed me the oe bushings were still firm, pliable, usable, etc. But, as my WD ext warranty was expiring this weekend, we were afterw hatever we could "fix", w/out being a predatory azzhole. My point is, the TA bushings on my car were still very serviceable...but replaced. And, guess what, I still have the shimmy, lmao! So, I guess I am agreeing with killcrap, though that wasn't my point. Nothing "wrong" with oe bushings as original parts, or replacements. Back at the ranch, I suspect the OP has some serious other problems that aren't necessarily bushings or, simply front end related, but wtfdik.
