MY Torsion Bar Rear ends?

Just wondering if there is a difference between the Brumby torsion bars and the ones in a wagon. Are they heavier duty in the Brumby to allow for more weight? I am putting a 4wd rear into a coupe and figured the lighter version would be better. Or is this just a false assumption

Ian, I was told by Sunspares years ago that they are a heavier torsion bar in the utes.

Thanks for the confirmation folks, will grab a wagon one to be safe.

2wd are the smallest followed by 4wd wagons and the ute is the stiffest. There are 3 different sets. I can find the o/d of them all if you like.
If you swap them from car to car make sure you put them back in the same side of the vehicle as the one you removed them from or they won't last that long. If you can get them use the brumby ones.

I have all 3, the main concern was the coupe ending up too high in the rear even at the adjusted low setting. As I am not lifting it just want it at normal height. I will try the wagon setup and if it is too high either put the 2wd ones in or move the wagon ones round a spline or 2.
