Audi 80 2.0 avant struts

[mackenzie50]

Hi folks, my recently acquired fwd 2.0l 80 avant has blown its (cheapo coilovers) shock seals on the front- car is undrivable and wife is unforgiveable if I don't sort this out pronto...so I could buy another set of coilovers via Germany or more sensibly go back to sta ndard..
Anyone got decent struts front +rear for fwd avant?
Cheers Colin

I've got spare inserts you can have but you'd need the strut itself as well. Might the previous owner still have the originals?

Saw this but he only appears to have the one side Cheap enough though.

Hi John
- sorry -missed your reply, thanks for suggestions, Spink on S2 forum and here has cheap front struts and springs
Now -i don't trust the rear coilovers but not leaking so far- if garage can raise them up , i don't have a 'c' spanner ....when doing the fronts, to level with standard front springs - is this a safe option at least temporarily?
Cheers Colin.
