Do you mean this one? 911uk.com - Porsche Forum : View topic - Polybushed Tuning Fork Failure

If If I understand it correctly that is a case of wrong application of the bushing, that end of the arm should be flexible to allow for the movement of the suspension. A solid spherical bearing could work, but not a stiff bushing. Or?

I can be totally wrong, if so please let me know!!!
