    Your B5 Audi A4/S4 have that "not so fresh" feeling? Does it clunk and clack over driveways and speed bumps? Does it have the steering response on a '59 Chebby?

    Its ok, your undercarriage just needs a little work, and it won't require any cream and you're not the only girl on the block, this is a common probmlem with B5 A4/S4/Passat as well as C6 A6 chassis cars.

    Fix it once and for all with a complete kit of all front suspension links. No, these are not parts for 7 cars which it may appear, your car really uses this many links to create the sharp handling and buttery smooth ride, just make sure they are tight for slop free, fresh handling.

    Save a ton of money by buying the complete kit over piecing together parts, OE arms, these are not performance upgrades, just new factory replacements


    PRICE = $390US SHIPPED without hardware
    PRICE = $420US SHIPPED with hardware

    That's cheaper than I can get them through my work, and that's not even figuring in the sway bar end links.

    Somebody take advantage of this offer. It's a great deal.

    The kit is cheaper because it does not come with the tie rod ends.

    The price is good, the real question is who makes these kits?

    They do not have a brand name as they are made by an OE Audi supplier.Same type of scenario as the density line mounts...
    These control arms were in the time attack B5 for a whole season and no failures.Same goes for the numourous customers I sold these to on Fourtitude/Vortex.

    If the price is too cheap I can always raise it

    FWIW the Febi control arms I put in at work all the time have OE part numbers on them and no stampings for who makes them. They just come in a red box that says "Febi" all over them.

    I wouldn't worry about the name on them so much.

    Maybe, like the ECS kit. At least a set for the top and another for the bottoms. The hardware isn't supposed to be reused and often gets messed up during removal. This is especially true of the pinch bolt.

    Seriously, my hardware was awful after all of the hammering to get it out. I was glad to have all of the new hardware.

    It sucks getting charge 6 or 8 bucks for a grade 8 bolt too. Even around here there aren't many places that sell them in metric and none are open on weekends. Giving buyers the option to add a bolt set provides them with a full turn-key solution. Well, turn-wrench at least.

    Would it be worthwhile to get this kit versus a performance upgrade? Say, for a B5 S4?

    I will look into the bolts for you.
    FWIW I have used grade 8 bolts from the local hardware store on my mounts for the MKIV Golf.They work and they come nickel coated too :D

    I haven't used this actual kit (mine was from Germany and cost an amazing £120 posted inc tie ends, which i'm guessing is about the same sort of price as this kit in dollars), but i can't recommend it enough! Changing all of it at once made so much difference to my car, its silky smooth on the road and round corners now. Also i agree with those who said they battered the old gear when removing, some of that stuff just doesn't want to shift! Mine came with a bolt kit too, and it seemed very necessary to change the majority of the bolts when i saw them come out, the corrosion was awful.

    I'll be picking up a set. Just have to check and see if I need rod ends. Got a wicked wobbly clunk. The arms took 65k miles of potholes and track days so I can't complain too much. Time to give the old girl back her glide.

    i have about 8k on these control arms and not one single issue what so ever. these helped out the front end of my car so much and they feel absolutly perfect. I would recommend these to anyone with a B5.
