Default Loose control arm/ bushings

I’ve been having loose/ shaky handling went to check and this is what I found, I’ve seen varying answers on wether you have to replace just the bushing or the control arm as a whole was wondering if anybody had any answers and if so recommendations on where to buy the new part/s

It didn’t let me post the video, but the part circled was where the movement was when pressing/ moving the wheel.

Good morning Daniel,
One piece of advice, Check your ball joints first before you buy the bushings. That will save you a lot of time and money. The bushings are available from several different sources at different prices. The forum has information about replacing the bushings but the best information for me was on U Tube where there are videos.
Best of luck,
Bill
