    It will be way too stiff to perform well.

        Audiman has swapped the rear struts and used the front ARB on the rear. Allegedly.
        Apparently it makes the rear break away to easy. Is that a problem? Seemed ok when I had a ride in his car.

          You will have less grip. I might be fun, but not fast.

                I have the front 26mm ARB on the rear of my coupe - the 2wd and quattro are different and only one fits though.

                With the RS2 front it is very well balanced - not tail happy like Toms. You can control front to rear slides on the throttle mid corner.

                Marco has this as well.

                      i made the drop links 24mm long. center to center. but i did cut the sway bar to length. I just went autoxing and it worked great. no problems with it yet.
