Default What Febi control arm Kit for early aluminum upright?
I searched and I was wondering what kit did people get for the early aluminum upright audi s4.
I was looking into the Febi kit but there was not enough information that it would fit. Do you know the exact parts and part numbers that I
need and where to get them? Thanks in advance.

Default Actually
That's the standard A4 kit.
FB.8D0498998
Not the S4 version we carry.
The difference is the tie rod ends.
S4 left / A4 right

Meant AL kit. I believe some people may have had luck with getting a hookup piecing it together
