the reason i ask is because i have a s5 coupe that has front end damage to it but it has eiback springs, suspension technique sway bars, and kyb strut.
Its pretty soild and my s4 suspension is BEAT!
i seen that the lower ball joints are different and the sway bars looked like the attached to the end links a little different.
It would be nice if i can just swap it all over to my s4 vert (lower control arms, shocks, springs, mounting gear, and sway bars).

so could it be done without to much problems?

The only thing you will lose are the replaceable balljoints. On S5 FCA's you can't replace the balljoints.
