Parts replaced.-a set of lower arm bush-a set of front wheel bearing hubsResultThough the replacement didn't completely eliminate the freeplay i had, I cud still live with it.2nd time,SymptomsFound bushes broken during my routine service.I've read it somewhere oil leaks from engine bay may damage the bushes.I'd agree to it as this 2nd time was due to oil leak..the bushes were wet of engine oilParts replaced.-full overhaul-the whole set of lower arm with bushes-a set of tie rodsResultAll leaks fixed..0% oil leaks..better driving sensation. 3rd timeSymptomsFreeplay became worse with "thud thud" noise from the steering. front wheels were wobbly.Found the lower arm bushes are broken again.Parts replaced.-a set of the whole assembly of bush with brackets,-swivel joint-lower joint assemblyResultAgain, these replacements didn't completely eliminate the freeplay i had.Couldn't afford anymore parts replacement due to financial constraint.But it was way better feeling of steady and firm steering den before. This time, had extra savings. Decided to completely fix the freeplay.Only to find out the bushes are broken againnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!The wheel bearing hubs are loose too. Can someone explain what would probably cause this multiple damn experince i've had.?</blockquote>
