Arnott is known on almost every forum for selling garbage ball joints and control arms.

Are there any subframe bushings that typically go bad on the LS??

I think I'm just going to go over the whole front end and tighten every bolt I can find lol. Saw a post about a 96' that had noise and it was a loose bolt on the subframe or something like that.
I bought the car with the undercarriage cover removed and in the trunk so it's possible the PO did something and didn't re tighten correctly.

no bushes in there that die really, but retightening the subframe bolts are a part of standard maint. that is often ignored.
