I have been having an issue where I feel clicks through the brake and steering wheel and I can hear them too but there not very loud. The clicks happen when I'm slowing down and/or turning a corner. I added seafoam auto trans tune earlier this week for another issue and I started noticing a low whining noise whenever I turn the steering wheel left/right. I'm not sure if it had anything to do with the seafoam or not. I also noticed that my lower control arm bushings look worn but I'm not positive. Could someone tell me if they are and if that or something else is causing these problems?
Worn lower control arm bushings?

The factory bushings already have slits cut into them from the factory but those look like they're separating more. It looks like it's time for some new LCAs. That clicking you hear may be one of your axles going bad. I'm not so sure about seafoam in the tranny either, you may want to do a fluid/filter change now.
Ok hopefully its not the axle 
I'm probably gonna get the lower control arms replaced today. And I just did a tranny fluid and filter change like a month ago. I was thinking of changing the power steering fluid to see if that helps at all. Also, is there any way I can check on my own if it is the axle?

They said I should leave it for now because it is really expensive to replace and its not causing any problems atm.
