Basic Bushing Questions 700

I've never replaced a bushing, but my car clunks, when I go over slow-down bumps, so I think I need some bushings. I've read the FAQ.

OK, so, is a bushing a rubber part that cushions some joint?

Does anyone have a digital photo that has the bushings labled?

The strut rod bushing...is that at the bottom of the front shock absorber?

The tie rod bushing...is that on the tie rod or in between the ball joint and the tie rod?

What other bushings should I be concerned about? What are the locations?

What are the best type of replacement bushings and where do I get them?

Thanks,

Bob

Check out the FCPGroton web site also. Chances are you'll only need the cone shaped bushings. While you've got it apart, might be time for ball joints. I had a similar clunk going over speed bumps after 220,000 miles. After replacing the ball joints and those cone shaped bushings everything seems fine. It was a real easy job. Just follow the directions in the FAQ
