Default 2003 nissan 350z lower control arm

I'd like to know if anybody can resolve this issue I have a negative camber issue and I found my lower control arm bushings are bad they seem to be squishing out if that was replaced will that increase my camber back towards positive

Are we talking FRONT or REAR camber?

That's a very important distinction.

In either case, while I agree with Trav and terrasmak above that new bushings will most certainly help/fix the issue, need to know this because...

If you plan on future changes - such as lowering, specifically - you might want to consider changing out entire assemblies versus just bushing replacements for control arms, transverse & lower links that support *ADJUSTABLE* CAMBER.

Labor - if you're farming it out - should be pretty much the same (or lower, including alignment, needed for either) for either bushing replacement or straight up R&R of the entire assembly. Might as well do it up now rather than to have to pay again to do it AGAIN in the future. That 2nd/future labor pays for the PARTS today.
