Here's a couple pics of the area referenced before. I'm not sure this is the problem, but it's worth a really good look over.....
This is the rear of the x-member on the drivers side. Where the screwdriver is pointing, you can see a sleeve that's welded to the x-member from the factory.
Passenger side with a lower control arm pin inserted into the x-member. You can now see why it is so difficult to visually inspect this area when it's mounted in the car. There's very little room.....
