Eric,

I don't have the number for Ur-q kit.
I have the one for 4kq.

According to everyone the Ur-q kits (both of them) are NLA

Let us know.. I would be interested in one if you find otherwise..

I'm going through this right now.  Due to a wheel bearing mix-up (my '86
has 83mm front bearings!) I had to temporarily put on a strut from my
'85.  They both have Eibachs, but one is progressive and the other
linear.

Martin, do you have the kit # for the linear urq set?  I've got the
numbers for the 4KQ, 80/90, and urq (progressive).  Brandon, do you have
the numbers from your springs?  I'll try to get everything I can from
the tech at Eibach and report back.

Brandon,

Actually three different versions for the typ 85
Two for Ur-q, one progressive and one sport.
One for the 4000 quattro as well.
Funny but H&R has the same spring for both, Ur-q and 4kq.

Anyhoo.. I had the 4kq version on my Ur-q and it was way too low in the
front.  With H&Rs it's a bit better, but still a bit too riceish... So I
just got the stock springs with Billies and now I am very happy with the
ride and look.

Cheers
