Audi ball joints

[chris at force5auto.com]

Sure enough to bet dinner on it? I like a good salmon...I'd agree with the
4k balljoints working on 80/90 cars built through 4/88, but that t'ain't
many of them. Those would be 17mm cones. The 365F/366F version(19mm cones),
and the 365E/366E(19mm) balljoints are the ones found on 80/90's from 4/88
through 92. the Coupe Q, and V6 cars are yet another bird altogether.

I didn't catch Tony's VIN, but by his description he'd have the post 3/88
split on the rears. My bet's on 893-505-365C/366C. Yes, they do look similar
to the fronts, but they're not the same item.
