Spindle/Upper control arm loose?
So after checking for this noise i get over bumps and what not, I know that I have movement from the bushing on the upper control arm at the spindle. What annoys me though, is that I have already replaced the upper control arm a little over a year ago.
I am guessing that over the prolonged amount of time it took for me to fix this, that the spindle has been damaged and the hole for the upper control arm has been hammered out.
Is there a sleeve I am able to press in to the spindle to get that back into spec, or am I looking at a new spindle and control arm? If I could afford the upgraded spindle and control arms, I would just do that. However, I'm broke and need to do this as cheap as possible.
Thanks for any help.
