Ok, so I'm ordering the bushings - however I don't know if these are the right bushings because it doesn't quite look like it does on my car.

Im looking at the THIRD product down on the page (it says its for the lower control arm). I need it, obviously, for my front lower control arm. Is this the correct part?

Thank you all for the help! m I've learned a lot about my car through this thread and its helped me out a lot.

 

Looks good to me. I mean, parts geek says it's for an 04 G. Works for me...

 

Your pictures were blocked at work; now that I see what's going on I can tell your lower control arm bushings are toast. If you do nothing else, those need to be replaced ASAP as that's what's causing your extreme tire wear. It also drastically affects handling. Basically the arm is shifting and throwing your toe out of whack. Toe eats tires far faster than camber, so getting that fixed should help.

Do you know if your base hobby shop has a hydraulic press? If so, you can replace the bushings (see options below).
If not, and given you limited experience, a better option (and faster) would be to replace the whole arm. Rockauto.com has good prices. Not all bases are equipped the same, I had to travel 50 miles away once to a different base to find one that had a press.

For bushing only replacement: Order a Whiteline "Essentials" Kit. This comes with every bushing up front as well as rear differential. Rear diff is not an easy replacement, but you can just sell that here on the forums. The kit is actually cheaper than if you purchased everything separately, that's why I would recommend it.

For arms swap, probably easiest and most budget friendly:
Left Front Arm: http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/more...id=377&jpid=35
Right Front Arm: http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/more...id=377&jpid=36

Compression rods also tend to go bad, to replace those:

Right Compression Rod: http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/more...id=377&jpid=31

The other advice given in this thread is pretty good, but honestly rear toe bolts aren't going to fix the front and doesn't address your immediate problem (blown bushings). After you fix this issue, then you can look into adjustable suspension to help get you more into spec.

SPC makes a quality kit for a reasonable price. There's cheaper options, but you get what you pay for in terms of reliability.

SPC rear camber with toe bolts (need to order 2): https://conceptzperformance.com/Cart...on.php?II=4356

Check the vendor section, some offer a package deal to save a few bucks.

Hope this helps.

 

sorry to bring this thread back up, is it possible to manually push out the bushing with a bushing removal tool? Or is a hydraulic press really required?

 

Some have done it with a large socket the same size and a hammer. Installed the same way.

 

You can... It's just a pain in the a$$!
