Thanks for the replies. I've researched the archives 
and it isn't exactly clear.  Based on what I found it appears 
that I require the hub and strut assembly from a URS4 or 
S6 (or I assume a 92-93 V8Q).  I guess my dumb
(or dumber) question for the day is - What 
encompasses the "Strut Assembly"?  Is it the 
Strut housing and the strut itself? Or just the 
strut housing, although I wouldn't think my
V8's strut would fit, right?

Besides the model years indicated, are there
others that would work too? Such as 92-94 
100?

Thanks again.
-DaveM
