Not all the bushings affect toe so your example is a bit presumptuous. Worn bushings will feel sloppy and lack precision which can cause various handling issues depending on which bushing it is.
Understand that I'm not trying to bust your chops. Just trying to broaden your understanding/interpretation. For the OP, he was just taking a long cruise so the effects of driving on worn pillowballs are minimal. |
I guess I wasn't too clear.
I didn't mean that worn bushings will always lead to this scenario. My car has worn bushings in the rear that pop and clunk and in the front as well. However, the car doesn't have any alignment/toe problems/instability, but I have heard of it happening depending on the severity of a particular bushing.
