Control Arm help

[Colt90tsi]

Well I looked under my car today to find the control arm all screwed up, the control arm poped out of the rubber bushing, I took the bushing clamp off and tried to put it back in there but the little rod at the end will not go all the way through the bushing, it goes about a quater of the way.. I tried taking it off and putting it in a different way but no luck, I inspected the arm and found no damage.


So can anyone tell me whats going on ?

Sounds like you bent it. If its bent a little it woudn't likely show damage. Junk yard one.

Or it's $120 at autozone for a new one with a LLT Warranty. I'd rather not get used suspension equipment for my car. To me, that's too important and the bushings are all at least 15 years old. You'll end up replacing those at a minimum anyway.
