Yea - my gut feel is same as you, replace the spindle, I'll post back after dis-assemble & inspection.
Well good news is the lower control arm does not appear damage, but I feel the guys who assembled the suspension did not make sure the square portion of the top/bottom spindle fit correctly into each side.



Shows the bad square washer and the lower control arm


Spindle lower portion


Good square washer is top one, trashed square washer is bottom one


My local shop, who I bought the buggy from, has zero clue how to order the replacement washer.
Ha, they gave me these washer and suggested I try to file them myself, or take them to a machine shop



Help:
Who has a lead on the service washer with square inside?
