C4 - Sway Bar bushings
As the weather starts warming up, I'm getting closer to pulling the engine and it would be a great time to change all the bushings around - c. arms, sway bar, and even (maybe) subframe.
Although I can wait until I have the car apart to measure the bar's diameter, or brace myself for calling audi dealer(s) around, does anyone have by accident the right part number for the sway bar bushings?
It would be greatly helpful.
Thanks in advance.
(don't know if it's really needed, but C4 2.8 12v, non-quattro)

Thanks a billion, Uber.
Is a FWD sedan - AFC engine (VIN A)
The inner bushings come with the control arms, it looks like- but if I have the correct PN I can just buy them separately, along with the outer bushings. (I've noticed they're widely available - at least at ECS Tuning and AAutohaus).
If the ball joints are still good, then I may just try to replace the bushings since I have access to a hydraulic press. Can't relly tell though until I pull it apart.
At least I know the c.arms outer bushings on both sides are cracked, and perhaps I definitely need to replace the sway bar ones.
Thanks again.
