Default Is this bushing damaged? (pics)

I don't know if my rubber bushing from the front stabilizer is damaged or not? Should I replace it? It is about 9 years old and I notice some noises from the front.

Left side:


Right side:


It's number 6 in this picture:

That shouldn't cause any noise, but it wouldn't hurt to replace them.

Can you not see the big split in the bushing? Of course it's busted.

They shouild be replaced, but they probably aren't the cause of your noise.
