recently my car has not been driving well...the car likes to swerve from side to side on its own without bothering to get my input on the situation (no steering wheel change), and when its cold and I back out of the driveway at full lock, the front end pops a lot. I just replaced the tie rod (didn't fix it), and did rear suspension work as there were some bushing issues back there. I've heard anything from a bad tire (tire shop says they are fine) to a bad alignment (just got that done, no change), bad ball joints and/or shock mounts(not sure totally what to look for) or bad wheel bearing (haven't put it up to check that yet) I took some pictures of key spots, can anyone take a look and see if these look like their car? Especially that front A-arm bushing...that bothers me and they look like that on both sides...

Have you tried to wiggle the wheel with your hands at 3 and 9 o'clock (tire rods)? How about 12 and 6 o'clock (ball joint)? This is with the car in the air. If there is any type of play, the bushing is bad.

I replaced all of my a arm bushings on my 94 camaro and it made a big difference.

Those lower a arm bushings are a bitch to push out if you dont have the right tools.

go get an alignment check and they can pinpoint the prob

tire rod ends, steering rack, rag joint, wheel bearing. or even the tires. the tires could track really bad on wavey road where trucks drive on alot. there could be alot that do it. your anti sway bar could be bad too

the alignment shop found the bad tie rod but couldn't pinpoint any other issues...guess I'll have to get it up in the air and start wiggling stuff...

well a bad tire rod will def do alotta bad things. get it changed and see how it feels. new anti sway bars would tightenthings up too
