[urq] Euro-UrQ: '80-shocks vs '87-shocks

[Louis-Alain RICHARD]

Data from NorthAmerican FA: Quattro 82 to 87, all the same.
Front: 857 413 031 A
Rear: 857 513 031 B

Data from Norwegian HTML FA: Quattro

Front before F >> 85-D-902 500: 857 413 031
Front after F 85-E-900 001>> 857 413 031 A
Rear: 857 513 031 B

FYI: D is 1983, E is 1984 but the rear suspension style changed at
85-D-900500 (that's exactly 37 cars after mine...). So there is 2000
cars with the new-style (à la 4000Q) rear suspension but the old spec
front shock absorbers. Rear shock is always the same.

Same source but for SPORTQUATTRO
Front: 859 413 031
Rear: 859 513 031

I guess many of us will want these, just to say we have some
SportQuattro parts on our ride...

83 urQ, no SportQuattro parts yet.

Jim,

>The shock inserts didn't change - the same parts are listed throughout
the
>entire run of Ur-q,

The part number did change at some point in 1983 or so....
I don't have the part numbers in front of me but I am 100% sure they did
(at least the prefix).
Not to say that it may just be a clerical change, and yes dimentionally
the shock inserts did not change.
Also the early BOGE were orange and later were grey in my experience.

Hope this helps.
Cheers
