Control arm bushings. Cost effective?

Hi,

I've think I've found the cause of the front suspension clicking.

Both L & R inner control arm bushings permit movement of the respective road wheel when tested in the 9-3 position.

The car has @66K miles on the original struts & control arms. Should I bother to have the bushings replaced. Or just wait until the ball joint(s) fail and replace the whole unit.

Thanks,

Bryan
