I would have to check to be sure, but my gut feeling is no. I don't know
about quattro models, but on the FWD, I beleive the rears are larger in
diameter than the fronts. My mehcanic says that the fronts are a
"weak spot" for the 4000 series, but I haven't really heard anyone complain
about the rears. Are yours bad? Side to side of front to back movement in
the axle?
