Ok I'll take a pic

 

the first pic is with the wheel straight the second is with the wheel turned its hard to see but the white part of the bushing is out some of the sleeve.it look like it didn't move as much today maybe cause we r parked on a incline

 

No it looks like it moved quite a bit to me. Is it me or it that mount cracked on the bottom? Could the mount be bent causing bushing to move? Just a thought.

 

Yeah the bracket/mount had those slits on both sides its not broke but not sure if it came like that or someone before cut it

 

The slots are normal.
As for the movement, it's hard to really tell - if you take a picture from the front of the car looking back it would be more obvious.

 

Ok but the white part of the bushing shouldn't move at all right?

 

The white part shouldn't - it's one side of a flexure bearing and should be fixed to the subframe. The aluminum arm itself will have some motion around it, though, since it's not a solid piece of rubber (it can't, it wouldn't be able to twist otherwise.)

If you feel up to it the arm it relatively easy to release, it just requires a lot of torque (and some creative thinking to not strip the special retainer nut).

 

It was moving more yesterday maybe cause the cause was facing downhill and today facing uphill, the white part is moving for sure its hard to tell from the pic but even in the second pic u can see the white part of the bushing is more exposed when the wheel is turned

 

What I'm saying is that the arm itself is actually moving as it's not mechanically fixed to the frame, just through pieces of rubber. So the arm moves backwards, exposing the white part - which is normal (to a degree, although 1/2 inch is not normal.)

 

Maybe its the aluminum arm/ sleeve moving over the white part of the bushing

----------

Yeah cause they are both new,it looked like it was moving a lot more yesterday although I was being rushed.I'll park in the same spot as yesterday and look again

 

 

If you look at the second pic it looks like the white part of the bushing is separating from the outer (black part) of the bushing.so the hard plastic white part is the center and the black rubber part is the outer part of the bushing

 

If the rubber has torn/broken away from the center sleeve, the bushing is junk and needs replaced.

 

I hard to see in there if the bushing is broke but there is definitely movement of the of the lca sleeve over the white center part of the bushing

 

Bottom line is, something is moving that shouldn't be, kinda hard to tell from the pics. I assume those control arm have a warrantee? Replace them. Maybe go with a different brand.

 

Yeah i'm probably going to try moog cause these are new

----------

Yeah I was reading some reviews on dorman lca and quite a few people complained about the bushings slipping out of place or becoming unseated.probably happened when I was breaking my brakes in

Interesting, and good to know.

 

Well the creaking was coming from the brake anti rattle clips, still haven't found where the popping when reversing is coming from

 

So if there is play in my control arm sleeve/bushing would that make my steering wheel come off center when I drive on a crowned road

 

Most of the time, driving on a crowned road, you will slightly turn the wheel toward the high side of the lane or road in order to keep the car from drifting into the gutter. Normal.

 

Oh ok it just seems a little excessive.

 

This is my old control arm bushing when I stick a screw driver in there I can move the bushing, this is what the new control arms are doing when the wheels are turned.the old control arm bushings are cracked but are they still supossed to move like that

 

Now I get a squeaking type noise when going over speed bumps and if I bounce the car from the front too.if I open the hood and bounce the front I can hear it alot better than if the hood is closed.is this more than likely a strut mount.

 

Squeak only when both wheels move the same direction at the same time (not when going over a speed bump at an angle)? Look at the sway bar bushings.

 

Not sure about going over at an angle but I'll try that
