Default Hi everyone...I'm new !!

I have a quick question.

I just bought a 1996 Escort, the front tires are worn out on the sides.
Someone told me the Camber Arm / or Control Arm bushings are done.
Does anyone know if you can buy the bushings for that. I don't want to put more in the car then what's it's worth.

Any response is appreciated.

my regards

Pete

First check camber - You can roughly do that with a bob or level - not very exact, but it can give you an idea - don't know about exact camber for your car, but it should be zero or negative
Too mich toe-in can cause the same wear
