(Corrected Information) Control Arm Bushings

[projectnitro8]

Sorry for the wrong information the first time, jacked up the truck to check that the ball joint was my issue.. long story short it wasn't. I do beleive this is the lower control arm, the photos should show how much travel it has between left and right rotation of the wheel.

I would have gotten pictures of the condition of the driver's side, but I wasn't able to find it. Where I beleive it would have connected, the steering shaft connects.

Looks like the Idler Arm ~ buy a quality part to replace it

FWIW, the driver's side counterpart would indeed be the Pitman arm, which converts rotation of the steering wheel into a lateral movement via the steering gear box. The idler arm completes a parallelogram linkage along with the Pitman arm, center drag link, and the truck frame.
