An 1989 is of that age where the bushings are suspect.

If you go that way take some time to make sure your A-arms are not bent.
I had hit a curb a while back but never noticed that it had put a slight arch in the A-arm from the wheel back to the body.

I can't remember what I was doing in the wheel well that I noticed it. I'm glad I found it before installing bushings and doing an alignment. It was one reason for the slight pull in the steering.
