Default Intermittent Alignment issue - SOLVED

So, after an alignment and the addition of the camber bolt kit and a re-alignment, I was still having an intermittent alignment issue where, upon hearing a distinct "thump" when slow speed steering into or out of a parking spot. Sometimes the car steered perfectly sometimes it had vibration at the wheel and pulled left. There was play at the idler arm bushing. A rebuild kit was ordered for like 9 buks and when we went to change it out, the nut on the bottom of that bushing was loose. We retightened and the play dissappeared. I put the bushing rebuild kit on my shelf of spare Crossfire parts for future reference. The alignment seems true now.....I had asked the guy doing the alignment to shake the wheel and the center link components and look for play....obviously, he didn't or he would have seen where the play was...Incompetence tries my temperment when it comes to doing something right the first time....Peace 'yall.
...this was on the black SRT with 150K mi.
