Hey guys, got a 98 SR5 with 184k on it.
Went in and realized i can move by control arm back and forth a bit (hood to trunk direction) with a small pry bar.. so wondering if my bushings are shot, debating doing the whole arms or just the bushings. I have sawzall ready if my cams are seized etc.
The noise (watch short vid) makes sense to me from that because it only does it with wheel cranked hard left and abrupt start stops.
Vehicle is newish to me and im stoked to be a part of the community and have a 3rd gen again! (had one as a teenager).
Any insight is greatly appreciated.
PS: im doing lower ball joints as well so doing these together would be best
