Default Shock/Strut bolts

Hey guys,

Newbee question here.
I'm replacing my stock suspension with and S4 suspension.
The question I have is in regards to the bolts. I've heard that the bolts are a one-time use only thing, meaning that when you take them out, you must replace them with new ones or they'll fail.
Is there somewhere other than the Audi dealership that I can buy them. I looked on ECS Tuning with no luck.

Thanks in advance for your help

Yes they are on ECS.

But putting an S4 suspension on a car that isn't an S4 is a bad idea.

Could you tell me how they're listed on ECS? I must've overlooked them.
Also, why is it a bad idea to put that suspension on an non-S4 a4.
I have an a4 2.8 quattro. Has almost the same front body weight as an S4, minust the twin turbos.
If I had a 1.8, i would have to agree with you.

Love to hear your thoughts on it.

Thanks

Well if you've figured out al the weight distrobution stuff it wont be an issue. However, the S4 suspension is nothing special from what I hear.

As for ECS, just do a search.
