Rear Wishbone

This is a follow up from my previous suspension squeaks post.
So yesterday I spent some time replacing the upper rear control arm, the large bent arm at the top.
Alas the squeak is still there arghhhhhh.
So upon further investigation, lubricating, tapping, loosening,tightening, I still cannot pinpoint where it's coming from.
My question now is, due to time and availability, ie I need the car on the road and I work all over, can I purchase the lower osr wishbone complete with bushes etc...I can then swap the whole thing out.
Does anyone have the part number and idea of cost?
And looking yesterday I could not see any tracking, camber adjustment under there, any ideas?

Lower Wishbone...the one with 4 bushes is in the order of £300....I had to replace one as the bushes were in a right mess after a bodged alignment.
