Rs4 b7 front drc shocks

Post by fildyke » Fri Nov 19, 2021 8:59 pm

Anyone got any front drc shocks going, need a new front off side

Cars fitted with the ss+ suspension but assume this only affects the springs.

Preferably new but good condition used would be ok.

Cheers

SS+ Dampers have different part numbers as well as the springs.
I’ve got a full set of SS+ off an Avant but not willing split and probably different part numbers again to a saloon.
Have you tried Audi, are they still available?

Ok thanks for the heads up on the part numbers.

Not tried audi yet, just wanted to see if there were any out there first.

Tbh ill probably take it to MRC and let them sort it.

I have a pair of brand new SS front shocks I can sell. Damping tune is slightly firmer on the SS+ shock but not much in it. People have run SS dampers with SS+/H&R springs in the past with no issues.

Shocks are £467 each including VAT from TPS as of last month when I inquired.

Last time I checked SS and SS+ were still available but some items were on back-order.

Dampers are the same across the 3 platforms (either SS or SS+) as are the SS+ springs on saloons and Avants.

SS springs are different between the saloon, Avant and Cab (based on axle weight).

Appreciate the offer and info. Think I'd prefer to stick with ss+ tho, just to be sure

I might give TPS a call too so thanks for the heads up.
