I would prioritise the coilovers and fit them as upright as possible. Easy enough to make a swaybar fit somewhere else. In fact, with a live axle, It is technically better in my view for the swar bar to just connect the two trailing arms - if you think about it, no body connection is required and this was the set-up used in later live-axle Volvos.

I am using an IPD bar for a 940 on my 164 - see page 14 of my thread (but be warned, my fabrication is not as neat as yours!):
