Rear Suspension Linkage Help Needed

Hi All

Here is a pic of the right rear linkage:



What is the arm that goes from A to B? It was bent, possibly because of a recent accident (see circled area). Does it need to be replaced? If it is not replaced, what could happen? Do these things need to be replaced in pairs?

What is the arm C? My mech told me the bushings were worn - is this apparent from the pic (see the left side of the arm)??



I am a novice DIYer, most complicated job I've done is replace front tie rods -See Here. I have a limited amount of tools, but am willing to buy more, as usual. Posters to my tools thread will know what I'm talking about.

So how hard is the A-B link? C?


EDIT: Car is a 1988 190E 2.6
