[I've talked about this with Larry Boyer (a well-known 4kq owner in Quattro
Club circles) as well as Larry's favorite mechanic, Todd Diaz of Autobahn
Service in Milwaukee. They say you can simply scavenge the front sway bar
from a 4k and use it in the back, as the rear suspension on a 4000 quattro
is fundamentally a mirror image of the front setup. I know Larry has
successfully tracked his 4k for some time with this rig in place. I'm not
entirely clear on how it's installed, but I've recently pulled the front bar
from a donor car and plan in the next month or two to have Todd drop it in.
Once he's done I'll report the fine points of the installation.]

I'd like to know how this goes, as I have 2 extra anti-sway bars, I can put
to use.
