How do you know if the control bushings need to be replaced? What are the things to look at?

Some of the symptoms of a faulty control arm bushing include cracks on the boots or clunking on the front suspension. The best bet is to simply visually look at them. Its easy to see a worn bushing, its just a bunch of rubber so if the rubber is all deteriorated and half is missing then it needs replaced.

Does anyone have the schematic for a 2000 neon, I am trying to ID all the control arm components, the sway bar components, and trailing arm. Need new bushings but not sure of all the components.
Thanks

Perfect! Thanks for the quick reply.
I am trying to find the bushings for #4 Lateral arms, hard to find.
Thanks again.
