Default SoCal Pick and Pull Yards with Audis?

I foolishly spent a whol Saturday trolling pick and pull yards in LA area, found one Audi 80 and a 100 but only took what I needed - a month later, I need more stuff, can't find those cars!

Ecology now says "they don't handle inventory queries via phone" - stupid. It's not worth my $2 and 50 miles and hours to troll out to their place in gawd know what weather and muck for nothing again.

Anyone know of a DECENT pick and pull yard in LA area that will answer the phone and look up the make/model/year via phone without requiring a phyiscal trip to the facility? Any yards around here which have know Audi content to pick over?

no one will sale that on a pick-ur-part
check it here: http://www.car-part.com

also B5 rear lower a-arms?
there are two B6 a4 right now but i think its not worth it.
they could be junks.

and a 4:11 B5 rear diff? both fwd
otherwise i would take brakes, diff, hubs, liek always

worth a shot:-) i need to find a set of a-arms from a B5 as they are thicker then the B4's also, one of my tweaked.
the reason why i ask for other pars is because i want to do an 01E conversion to my with a torsean rear diff, and i would rather have a spare rear to work with then the ones that's currently installed on the car.
