The 100 Scott wants to use parts from I think has the
correct 19mm ball joints, but the controll arms have a
slight twist to them. So you'll have to use yiour V8
controll arms.
But the 92 was the new C4 bodie style.
Not sure about hub offsets though. My wifes 96 A6qa
has 45mm offset hubs..so you may have to swap hubs to
get them back to 35mm..or use 10mm spacers.
