LCA bushing shift?

[DKTZ06]

I've experienced some alignment shifting in the last couple months after auto-xing. My alignment settings are aggressive, but they seemed to work fine .... then one or two events later, I change tires and the car pulls to the left. Is this the dreaded control arm bushing slip that I've heard about?

And for my information, what should I be looking for when inspecting for this problem?

TIA.

Check to see if the top A-arms look like they have moved forward, and the lower to the rear. When it's bad the lowers will come in contact with the cross member at the forward lower pick up point.

Been there done that three times, or about once a year. Next time I'm going to the T-1 set up if still available.

Thanks, Mark! I'll keep an eye on them.

I've noticed the same thing on mine. Sometimes if accelerate hard out of a corner the steering wheels gets cocked off center. After a few hard brake applications it straightens out. Very troubling.
