 Why yes,  actually I found these last week at The Parts Connection (formerly
 IPC).   You are correct on the style change also,  the cut-off is somewhere
 around 6/83. this would make sense that the production for the '84 4000s'
was
 in progress.  The 
 serial # for the newer style is 85-D-900582 and up for the 83 model year.  I
 understand the same serial # applies when the rear control arms and other
 associated parts are needed.   The part cost less than half of dealer list
 but was not Original Audi, however it was made in Germany and looked to be
 very high quality.  It's in the car and my self adjusting rear geometry has
 been stopped.
 
 Happy Motoring,
