I replaced the utterly crumbled-to-dust original front suspension leading link bushes with urethane ones (not SuperFlex, but something else I don't know the origin of). On one side of the front suspension, the bushes aren't loading equally/evenly, with one of them, the inner one, MUCH more compressed than the other. In replacing them, everything was thoroughly cleaned and lubricated, and carefully reassembled to hope to ensure free movement of the link through the frame as it came back together. The other side of the car is fine, and the geometry of both sides is spot on.

Anyone had this happen/seen this with their car? Any suggestions on repair or how to avoid this on servicing?

Thanks.
