I tried look over on lift but it’s hard to say because I don’t know how it’s should look like.

That sure looks like the bushing is shot judging by how far its moving on the bracket.

Btw what did you use to video that under the car? I really need to do that on my mercedes as I've been trying to track down a few clicking sounds that are driving me crazy.
