Message I replaced my inner and outer tie rods to fix a vagueness in my steering, but that didn't solve the problem completely. However, when the tie rod and tension rod were disconnected, I noticed lateral play in the lower control arm.

Is the best option to replace the whole control arm with a new one, or to put in a new bushing? Search says that the bushing replacement is a real PITA.
Also, how frequently does the ball joint go bad on the front lower control arm?

Thanks
