Compression arm replacement time?

[spyderdrifter]

For some time, at random moments, I notice that when I drive over road imperfections I'll get a knock of some sort from the suspension components. I finally got sick of hearing this, so I racked my car in search for anything loose or abnormal. The only thing I've seen is that the driver side compression arm bushing, not ball joint, is showing its age and falling apart. Could this be the likely source of this knocks I hear?

Probably. I have the same issue for my lower control arm. The outer bushing is totally gone. So I get knocks/pops over bumps and while turning. It's also throwing everything else out of alignment, so my brakes squeal under certain pressure.

Can't wait for my tax return to come in.

Luckily my brakes don't squeal or anything, would make me insane. Found a kit on extremPSi that has the spindle, compression arm, and lower lateral control arm. Gonna get that for both sides.
