I had this problem myself this past summer.  I kinda stumbled into mine - I
had all the suspension off the car at the time, & when I moved the rear
"axel" up & down, it clunked & you could watch the end of the transverse
link move away from the car.  I bought my new ones from Linda for a hundred
something each.  :-(  (Don't forget the special trip to Sears for the
monster socket to get 'em off.)
