coilover rear bushing has play?

When I accelerate from a start the rear end feels like it is swaying. so I checked the rear bushings and the passenger side was worn and there was significant play in there. So I just replaced the rear 2 bushings hoping that was the issue. But I still have the same issue. any ideas what too do?

When you are ready to have a real mechanic fix it for you, go here:
IRPerformance | 55 Prospect Street, Metuchen, NJ 08840 Tel. (732) 662-1794

Washers aren't a fix. They are a band aid.
