The question https://mechanics.stackexchange.com/questions/15711/why-is-my-car-tramliningpulling-veering-when-i-hit-road-imperfections has been voted to be closed because there is an older question https://mechanics.stackexchange.com/questions/15234/how-do-i-prevent-bushing-wear-and-what-parts-besides-the-suspension-uses-bushing.

The older question in this case does not have an answer. I have seen this before on MV&M, so I would like to draw attention to:

> ...**already has an answer.**
> ===========================

It seems like the appropriate way to handle the scenario would be to mark the *older* question as a duplicate since the newer question has answers.

Or am I missing something?
