The answer is ABSOLUTELY NO!!!!!! unless you want to risk destroying your rear suspension subframe, toe link, lower control arm, sway bar, and axle/CV.

salvage yard maybe, otherwise, $200 doesn't sound too bad considering what it is. How many miles are on your car to cause that front joint to go bad already?

I might just have a salvage track arm for you. PM me with the part number off your old one and I'll dig for it.
Where the heck did I put that part anyway? Hmmmmm.

75K miles and this just started about 5K ago and only on the right. The sound is small, but it will drive you nuts. top up or down, coasting over a cobble stone road, it sounds like someone tapping on the rear frame with a plastic hammer.
Randell if you have a lower track arm in the garage, I would like to buy it from you. For nothing else, it will help me eliminate the arm as a source of the tapping.

James, I'm taking the day off today to get stuff done around the house before vacation next week and I'll dig for it.
What I really need to know is a part number of what you need and how many inches long the thing is... I really cannot remember what I bought and if it's a trailing arm, a track arm, etc.
If anyone else knows how long the track arms are please post it or PM me with it. I know it's looooong, but I'd hate to send James a part that's not right.
