Bushing Flex, how much is too much
Had a camera on the car recently and noticed that the rear tire toed in significantly when torque (brake or throttle) was applied. Put it on a hoist, and it is lower control arm bushings that are "squishing". The gap around the bolt looks ok, a little off on one side, but not a whole lot.
Does this look like too much flex? If so, where can one find replacement rubber bushings for the rear end? I need rubber bushings to stay is stock class at autox and all I can find are poly. I can't even find a place that is selling new control arms. Do I have to do upper and lower or can I just do lowers?
