Dog tracking? 200

Hi there,

My '90 240 wagon is dog tracking a bit. I have two possible causes, I'd like to see what everyone (anyone) thinks, or that has had this same experience. I followed the car over the weekend for the first time. The front left (drivers side front) was out a bit. I was behind it for about 15 miles and it was doing this, not just in my head. My first thoght was, that is was tracking like this because it had been hit before i bought it, on the passengers side front. But most of the rear end bushings are blown (make noise when going form reverse to forward or going over uneven surfaces). So I called a frame alignment shop and they said, "90% of the time its (dog tracking) the rear end". So has anyone had this problem and fixed it be just replacing the rearend bushings?

Heres a picture of the damage on the front end.
I had the hood popped in this picture, thats why its up so high, it functions just fine.
