Problem overview

Some Chevrolet Avalanche 2500 owners report experiencing front lower control arm bushing migration issues that can lead to alignment problems, handling difficulties, and increased wear on suspension components. These owners emphasize the importance of repositioning the control arm bushing to prevent further complications and ensure proper alignment and functionality. Additionally, they note that correct installation is vital for maintaining the structural integrity of the suspension system and preventing premature wear. Symptoms such as knocking sounds, creaking noises, and handling issues are commonly reported, and addressing these signs promptly can help avert more severe problems. Some owners find it more practical to replace the entire control arm assembly rather than just the bushings for optimal performance. For those uncertain about repositioning the bushing themselves, seeking a professional mechanic's expertise is recommended to accurately diagnose the issue and determine the best course of action.
