Just a thought for anyone who wants to try.... I know there is a geometry issue using standard R+P on a straight-axle, mounted to the cross-member (fixed to the frame). If a center-action rack were used, with a cross-link to the tie-rod, would the geometry be much different than that of a modern truck with normal power steering?
I ask as I have changed the rack on my Z24, and that rack has the tie-rods attached to the center, rather than the ends.
Current fleet (subject to change w/o notice) \'49 GMC 3/4-Ton , 60 Austin Healey Frog-eye Sprite (some assembly required), 2011 Dodge Avenger, 2015 Jeep Cherokee. No, they don't all run. My other ride is a (B737)no, (B767)no, A320.... Update... was Embraer E190, now Boeing B787. Knowledge is a wonderful thing, but ignorance means you don't know you can't do something.
