front suspension bushings

[freexj]

i have an 04 1m 600. i was doing some work on it, had the front lifted off the ground and noticed the bushings looked liked they had a small amount of slop.
im wondering how much is normal? the sled only has 197 miles on it.

Mine was the same way, Like they never greased them at the factory? Was left hand side lower arm, Replaced with alum. bushings and haven't had a problem since! Was about .03 slop on the bushings but about .125 at the spindle. Never noticed any improvements in steering after replacement.
