Think this would cause reduced ET/speed?
Not sure when it happened, found it yesterday while doing something else.
To think, it only took the shop 3 days to put those bushings in.
I think I understand now why the alternator bracket was loose during Super Chevy 2 weeks ago.

I doubt it would cause a reduce in your et but would definetly make a clunking noise over bumps
did the bolt break off in there or just fall out?

Fell out.
I guess it wouldn't "reduce" ET, although it might reduce "performance". (Must have been more tired than I thought last night when I wrote that.)
It was pulling to the left slightly, more noticible when braking. New bushings due in today.

Bushings arrived, new guts installed.
The control arm was moving back and forth as well, changing caster. Hopefully this will solve all that.
We'll know Friday night...
