I'm curious if anyone ever tried this set from 1AAuto:

1aauto.com/trailing-arm-rear/i/1asfk01295?f=678643&y=2002

They are pretty cheap compared to others, but they do state a Lifetime warranty so I guess they can't be that bad. :confused:

When I'm driving down the road and let go of the gass, the rear seems like it is shifting to the side. Same applies if I give it gas, the rear shifts to the side. I'm assuming the control arms need to be replaced.

I wouldn't do it. The rubber bushings tend to disintegrate pretty quickly from what I've heard, regardless of brand (yeah, even OEM!). Lifetime warranty is cool, but they never cover labor charges. When I bought my first car I thought the lifetime warranty brake pads I found at AutoZone were the cat's pajamas until I realized I'd have to hang onto the paperwork and packaging, pay to have them mailed god knows where, and have my car up on jacks until a new set was mailed to me. And I ended up tossing them months later because they were terrible :rotflmao

The long and short of it: you can, but I wouldn't advise it.
