It's important that the lubricant that you use to slide the control arm bushes onto their pins is of a type that is non permanent, such as a 50/50 mix of washing up liquid and water, and that the bush is turned on the pin to its position at normal ride height before the lubricant dries.
Steering alignment (toe) should be checked afterwards.

Rear ARB links from an estate around 2000 year.
Cost about the same as E30 ones, give no performance gain whatsoever, but should last considerably longer.
