Default Weird problem suspension?

The last few days i have noticed that when ever i hit a bump while on the throttle the whole front of the car skips and goes nuts.

Could this be caused by the worn out OE lca bushings?

skips and goes nuts?

what do you mean by this you gota be more specific... if its really really bouncy than you gota replace your struts.
if its jumping from a stand still its probaly wheel hop and you need an alignment

have someone rock the car up and down on the front bumper and see if you can see under there for loose parts listen carefully for knocking and look at all teh bushing really close for play

Well I had the car up in the air and all the bushings looks worn as expected and the suspension is still pretty new (3 month old Koni yellows) I check the balljoints and they check out too My friend is gonna take it to his job and put it on the hunter machine and give her an alignment .

Im also gonna order all the front lca bushings from honda

i'm going to guess radius rod bushings or ball joints. you really need to yank on the knuckle to check the ball joints.

either will let the wheel move forward and backward quite a bit.
