So I had the bushings replaced on Thursday and the noise is completely gone.
Total cost was $170 (2hrs labor @ $85/hr)
My mechanic said all the other bushings looked fine and it would take a few more hours and a few hundred more to swap them out. He could have just taken my money and did it, but told me to just hold onto them in case they may be needed in the future.
Overall, I am extremely happy. The car rides fine, and is a helluva lot smoother than last week. This cost me about $290 by just replacing the bushings as opposed to about $600+ if I replaced both Control Arms.
I must thank all the members for your advice and help with this.
