If it's solid then you are going to have some binding as mentioned. A panhard bar and torque arm replace the 2 upper arms. The panhard bar is responsible for holding the rear side to side under the car (this is what the 2 upper arms do as well in a 4 link setup) The torque arm controls axle windup which allows the two lower control arm to do their job of transferring power to the chassis.

Don't "fix" it if its not broke.
