Where in the hell are the washers?

If you alignment was off before this adventure that could affect how you felt the steering.

i think they have done a front end alignment every time they have had to replace the front bushings and now both sets, but i cannot disagree.

Could a poor alignment cause a "healthy" joint to pop, but then disappear when aligned correctly? I would say one of my control arm-strut rod bushing was already deteriorating (my fault.... torched it on accident trying to get inlinks off), and i constantly had issues with the front strut rod bushings.

When i brought up the issue to the shop they said they pulled and pried and couldnt find anything, so all i could think of was the strut rod bushings ive had issues with countless times over. Anyways its the same shop that has probably installed things incorrectly numerous times.

but i agree, i just cant find anything obvious other than the strut rod bushings until now and neither can they apparently. so probably a ball joint that is hiding its face or poor alignment.

Is the car lowered? Geometry can change, although these cars seem to do really well with 1.5” lowered.

well it is technically not lowered, but the fcs replacement shocks came with their own springs and seem to sit slightly lower

edit: also well technically shorter tires. so yes its lowered about an inch maybe but doesnt look like it with the wheel gap
