yup, could be control arms or brake calipers.
first, get someone to watch your control arm mounts for movement while you reverse and apply brakes. this is what mine was doing when my bushings went south.
then check your caliper mounting bolts, you may have lost one.

i have experienced both these problems in the past, it could be either, or.
