Certainly sounds like the control arm. Allow me to do a bit of searching and see what I can find, including prices.... |

There are some Mazda garages listed in the Discounts section for Gold club members. Might be worth going for Poly bushes while you're down there (we also have discount deals with these  ). I didn't change my front ARB bushes because it was so much extra work They'll probably be cheaper than OEM ones as well.

Sorry to hear about that Phil. I guess [u]FATE[/u] didn't listen when you said that you were out of 'funds' for the car; she only heard up to the point when you were still spending loadsa$$$$$$$s on it.......
