If you've changed anything on regular type suspension before then you shouldnt have much problem doing this job i'd say

you'll probably find that the camber arm it connects to is the suspect knocker.best to change both.its not hard to change them , if its drivers side you have to loosen and drop the sub frame to get the bolt out that holds the arm in place because the sump is in the way :ffs:

or remove the north / south cross member (the one the engine mounts bolt to) and then jack the front of the enigine up gives you enough clearance and saves replacing the aluminium bush on the rear arm.

those tie rods wont be doing the knocking ,it will be camber arm 1 thats noisey ,i'd cover it with grease where the rubbers split ,to keep the weather out and save 54 quid
