Dez, Mikes2 sells them, give him a PM and do the deal.
It is just the threaded adjuster bar you require with two "spanner size 22ml" locking nuts? Do you still have the 2 taperd washers available? These washers lock the steering arm and tie rod end into place.

According to mikes 2 I just need the 2 reverse threaded locknuts. He has got the other bits.
I did find a place which sells the whole bar+trackrod at £69 per side, for future referance.

ooo yeah...
Well just to update, I have some fancy new wishbone bush's pressed in there, and the adjusters have worked wonderes. theres still just a slight wobble going on, but im suspecting it must be top mounts, as theese havent been touched since I have owned the car, about 5years..
The handling is now amazing, and i am even more chuffed with my Audi than I ever have been.
It'll probarbly be picked up on MOT, but whats the procedure to check top mounts.

Raise the front wheel off the floor..Get a Pry bar(or scaff pole) wedge it under the tyre an lift the bar whilst looking up under the wheelarch for "lift" in the Strut top....Bear in mind you will get a small ammount anyway...Please make sure you use a decent jack!!!...Not the one from the boot...
