The common power steering conversion kits will solve this problem. They put a 70's pickup steering box in front of the axle and allow using universal joints to move the steering shaft.

Rack and pinion mounted on the crossmember will be bump-steer hell. The magazine article described putting the rack on the axle. I think that's a poor idea too, but it would be interesting to hear from some people who have tried it.
