Default and about V8 suspension.....(rear)

probably somebody still remember, that I bought
coilovers from KW:
https://forums.audiworld.com/v8/msgs/133525.phtml
...So this kit still not installed, because I'm far away from home, but i took installation instructions with me, and what I found:
"If the vechile is not fitted with standard Audi sport suspension, use the following Audi parts":
441 512 349 (washer)
441 512 367 (ring)
441 512 331 (ring)
441 512 347 (adapter)
This will be numbers nr. 20; 21; 23 & 24 by this:
http://www.elcats.ru/audi/scheme.asp?mdl=760&pid=3C60189C
Question: sport suspension by this drawing is the middle one ?? Am I correct ??

You can't link to elcats for anyone who doesn't have a membership there, apparently.

If you're looking at this image:

<img src="http://www.vagcat.com/p/B119/505300.png">

then, as I take it, the center and right sections are for vehicles with automatic level features in the suspension.

The only mention of sports setups in the list of parts is for the springs.

If you want to put an on-line image into a message, you can use either the optional image URL feature of this website, which puts the image at the top of the message, or you can use the formula img src="complete URL" inside &lt; and &gt;.

If you want to use an image from an on-line catalog, right click on the image, choose to view "properties" and then highlight the URL so you can cut and paste it between the quotation marks in the formula above.

Oh, sorry, probably You, in the USA, cannot open www.elcats.ru at all.
And the difference who have a membership and who doesn't is jus possibility to se full parts codes......
And I understood Your remark about pictures posting...

... I see that as well, but intallation instruction from KW explains, that I need parts, which numbers are:
Nr.24: 441 512 349 (washer)
Nr.23: 441 512 367 (ring)
Nr.20: 441 512 331 (ring)
Nr.21: 441 512 347 (adapter)
And these parts are shown at the center and right sections of the picture....
So it means that originaly from factory was possible to order V8 with sport suspension and self leveling system in one car ?????
This is something new for me.....

Default Gedis, could you show a pic of the rear suspension stuff on that elkats thing?

I've got the ETKA &amp; I do not know how to copie &amp; paste it to show here. But anyway.......

....I took another look @ your coilover setup &amp; I see what your saying.
On our US V8's the rear setup is the 1st to the Left. But ETKA doesn't show a part # for two of the three parts. The only part that comes up is the dampning ring P# 441512297.
But here's a pretty good pic of my rear setup.
