Alignment issues yet again

The LCA doesn’t look too bad, but that’s pretty hard to tell from a picture unless it’s totally screwed. Put a straight edge on it and see if the ball joint lines up with the adjuster blade. Looks like there’s some play at the blade end, but that’s not uncommon and shouldn’t keep you from getting the alignment right.

Is all that shiny metal from the bushing install or is it rubbing on something?
