So what ur saying is,
If the G60 conversion was done using OEM parts from the urs4 then u can use the urs4 control arms/ball joints? If that's what ur saying I must disagree. The subframes are different from the type 44's too the C4 cars. And the control arms have a twist in the arm that won't line up with the type 44 subrame. And no way the C4 subframe can b used.
And all 91 200 20vt's and 90-91 v8's with UFO's all ready use the 19mm ball joints. The earlier G60 cars 86-90 200's, 100's and 5k's used a 17mm ball joint
