Lower control Arms bushings!

Im having several problems with my lower control arm bushing, I have to replace it every moth because they blow and sound *** hell!!!

The last time the mechanic told me they were really dificult to take out and in, olso i noticed that the nut that hold the small front bushing was like a half inch from the bushing in one side.
I have a 90 se and never have chage the struts, Im planing to get new KYbs and eibachs but dont know why my bushings always are bad.
Do you experience same problems as me?

BTW: I always buy OEM nissan bushings

the bushings on my SE are still the ones from the factory.. if you keep ruining them, then you've definitely got something wrong somewhere else. It would probably be a good idea to replace the entire control arm, ball joint, strut, and the bushins all at the same time. I'm sure it's all more than worn out if you've never done it before.

If your power steering is leaking fluid on the control arm, the bushings will wear out real qiuck.
