Control Arm Bushings?!

I hope this is the right place. My question is: How do I know if/when the control arm bushings go bad? My father thinks that they might be bad. The problem with my car is, the front passenger's side wheel pulsates or wobbles when I hit high speeds, sometimes at low speeds too. I was wondering if it isn't the bushings what else it could be? Thanks!

get the wheel balance again. a weight could of fallen off the wheel. our suspension bushings dont go bad that quickly. i have 60k on my 03 neon and havent had an issue yet with the bushings.

I'd check ball joint while you're in there too.

Alright. Well I just got the tire balanced & cleaned up my brakes a bit & now the problems seems to of vanished. I think I still need to get it aligned tho.
