The standard rears are made of plastic to reduce noise transmission into the body of the car, but as they age they will flex or snap.... A nice new link will stiffen the set-up nicely.
I fitted a 22mm ARB at the rear and it killed the understeer and made the car corner much flatter.

HTH

P.S. On the front cars with alloy arms use different drop-links, be careful.
