Rear control arms\rods\whatever there called

I was wondering is the rear control rods "the ones that goes from the body to the rear axel" will interchange between a 3rd gen into a 4th gen. My friend just wrecked his car and broke both of them and we can't find anyone that has one for a 4th gen.

Thanks for all the help,

I believe they're interchangeable. Performance replacements are available on the aftermarket for third and fourth gens. Steve Spohn makes some nice ones for example.
